🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider implementing parameterized queries and input validation in the login.php file.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Implement Input Validation

all

Add server-side validation to sanitize username input and reject SQL special characters

Modify login.php to include input sanitization functions

Web Application Firewall

all

Deploy WAF with SQL injection protection rules

Configure WAF to block SQL injection patterns in login requests

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the application behind a reverse proxy with SQL injection filtering
  • Implement network segmentation to limit access to the vulnerable system

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test login endpoint with SQL injection payloads in username parameter (e.g., admin' OR '1'='1)

Check Version:

Check application version in source code or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Attempt SQL injection after implementing fixes; successful login should only occur with valid credentials

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Multiple failed login attempts with SQL special characters in username field
  • Successful login from unusual IP addresses

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP POST requests to login.php containing SQL keywords in parameters

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/login.php" AND (username CONTAINS "' OR" OR username CONTAINS "--" OR username CONTAINS ";")
