📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise allowing data theft, modification, deletion, or full system takeover through SQL injection leading to remote code execution.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthenticated attackers exfiltrating sensitive data, modifying database contents, or escalating privileges.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and network segmentation preventing database access.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability is in a web application component that is typically internet-facing.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers could exploit this if they have network access to the application.

🎯 Exploit Status

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

Public proof-of-concept exists showing exploitation via HTTP requests to delete_query.php with malicious DELETE_STR parameter.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: Not available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Check vendor website for security updates 2. Apply any available patches 3. Test in non-production environment first

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement input validation to sanitize DELETE_STR parameter before processing

Modify delete_query.php to validate/sanitize DELETE_STR input

Web Application Firewall

all

Deploy WAF with SQL injection protection rules

Configure WAF to block requests with SQL injection patterns in DELETE_STR parameter

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Restrict network access to Tongda2000 application using firewall rules
  • Implement database user with minimal privileges for the application

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test by sending crafted SQL injection payload to delete_query.php?DELETE_STR=malicious_payload

Check Version:

Check Tongda2000 version in admin interface or application files

Verify Fix Applied:

Test with same payload after remediation - should return error or no database impact

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in database logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts after delete_query.php access
  • DELETE_STR parameter containing SQL keywords

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests to delete_query.php with suspicious DELETE_STR values
  • Unusual outbound database connections

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="*delete_query.php*" AND (query="*DELETE_STR*" AND (query="*OR*" OR query="*UNION*" OR query="*SELECT*"))
