🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: No official vendor advisory found
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Check if vendor released updated version after 2018-06-06. 2. Apply manual code fix by implementing parameterized queries. 3. Replace vulnerable member/member_order.php with secure version.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allAdd server-side validation to reject malicious SQL characters in type parameter
# In PHP: filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'type', FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
WAF Rule
allImplement web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns
# ModSecurity rule: SecRule ARGS:type "@detectSQLi" "id:1001,phase:2,deny"
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Block external access to SCMS application at network perimeter
- Implement strict database user permissions with read-only access where possible
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test member/member_order.php with SQL injection payloads like: ' OR '1'='1
Check Version:
Check SCMS version in admin panel or config files
Verify Fix Applied:
Verify parameterized queries are used and SQL injection attempts return errors without executing
