🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation and Sanitization
allImplement proper input validation and parameterized queries for the 'cod' parameter in news_det.php
Modify news_det.php to use prepared statements: $stmt = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM news WHERE id = ?'); $stmt->execute([$cod]);
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy a WAF with SQL injection protection rules
Configure WAF to block SQL injection patterns in URL parameters
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement network segmentation to restrict access to the vulnerable application
- Deploy intrusion detection systems to monitor for SQL injection attempts
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the news_det.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads like: news_det.php?cod=1' OR '1'='1
Check Version:
Check application files for version information or review source code for AZ Admin 1.0 references
Verify Fix Applied:
Test with SQL injection payloads after implementing fixes - should return error pages or no data instead of executing SQL
