Drupal 7 includes a database abstraction API to ensure that queries executed against the database are sanitized to prevent SQL injection attacks.
A vulnerability in this API allowed an attacker to send specially crafted requests resulting in arbitrary SQL execution. Depending on the content of the requests this could lead to privilege escalation, arbitrary PHP execution, or other attacks.
This vulnerability could be exploited by anonymous users.
