📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise including data exfiltration, data manipulation, privilege escalation to system-level access, and potential remote code execution.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to sensitive real estate data (client information, property details, financial records), data manipulation, and potential authentication bypass.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation and parameterized queries preventing SQL injection execution.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

SQL injection via id parameter is straightforward to exploit. Public proof-of-concept code exists in GitHub repositories.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: No official vendor advisory found

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider migrating to alternative software or implementing workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation and Sanitization

all

Implement strict input validation and parameterized queries for the id parameter

Modify PHP code to use prepared statements: $stmt = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = ?'); $stmt->bind_param('i', $id);

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

all

Deploy WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns

Configure WAF to block requests containing SQL keywords in id parameter

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the application in a segmented network with strict access controls
  • Implement database-level protections: use least privilege accounts, enable audit logging

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test id parameter with SQL injection payloads like: ' OR '1'='1

Check Version:

Check application version in admin panel or source code files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that SQL injection payloads no longer execute and return error messages

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual database queries
  • Multiple failed login attempts via SQL injection patterns
  • Long or malformed id parameter values

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests with SQL keywords in parameters
  • Unusual database connection patterns from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (id="*' OR*" OR id="*UNION*" OR id="*SELECT*" OR id="*--*" OR id="*;*" OR id="*/*")
