An unauthenticated attacker can exploit these flaws to potentially carry out a range of malicious activities. These include launching denial-of-service (DoS) attacks to disrupt normal operations, gaining unauthorized access to sensitive information through information disclosure vulnerabilities, and injecting malicious SQL code to manipulate the underlying database.
