CSV Injection (aka Excel Macro Injection or Formula Injection) exists in creating new timesheet in Kimai. By filling the Description field with malicious payload, it will be mistreated while exporting to a CSV file.
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.
