A CSV Injection vulnerability was discovered in HRSALE The Ultimate HRM v1.0.2 that allows a user with low level privileges to inject a command that will be included in the exported CSV file, leading to possible code execution.

Weakness

The product saves user-provided information into a Comma-Separated Value (CSV) file, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could be interpreted as a command when the file is opened by a spreadsheet product.
