Active Auction House and Active Auction Pro are prone to SQL-injection and cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because they fail to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied data.

Exploiting these issues could allow an attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials, compromise the application, access or modify data, or exploit latent vulnerabilities in the underlying database.
