No official patch available. Consider implementing parameterized queries or input validation in the affected admin/users_edit.php file.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Implementation
allAdd server-side input validation to sanitize user inputs before SQL processing
Modify admin/users_edit.php to implement parameterized queries or prepared statements
Web Application Firewall
allDeploy WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns
Configure WAF to detect and block SQL injection attempts to /admin/users_edit.php
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Restrict network access to the admin interface using firewall rules or network segmentation
- Implement strong authentication and monitoring for admin panel access

Check if Vulnerable:
Test the admin/users_edit.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads (e.g., ' OR '1'='1) and observe database errors or unexpected behavior
Check Version:
Check system documentation or about page for version information
Verify Fix Applied:
Test with the same SQL injection payloads and verify they are properly sanitized or rejected
