In WhatsUp Gold versions released before 2024.0.0, a SQL Injection vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to retrieve the users encrypted password.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass authentication on affected installations of Progress Software WhatsUp Gold. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of HasErrors method. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to construct SQL queries. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to bypass authentication on the system.
