Some vulnerabilities have been reported in LedgerSMB, which can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks and malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

1) Certain CGI scripts accept POST requests up to the length specified in the "Content-Length" header. This can be exploited to e.g. cause a DoS by exhausting the system resources via large POST request.

2) Input passed to an unspecified parameter in the AR/AP Transactions Report is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited by malicious users to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires valid user credentials.

Solution
Update to version 1.2.16.
