🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: No official vendor advisory found
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Implement workarounds or consider alternative software.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoint
Input Validation Filter
linuxAdd input validation to sanitize the 'id' parameter before processing
Example PHP: $id = filter_var($_GET['id'], FILTER_VALIDATE_INT); if($id === false) { die('Invalid input'); }
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Restrict access to /hprms/admin/ directory using network ACLs or authentication requirements
- Implement database user with minimal permissions (read-only for doctor viewing functions)
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the endpoint with SQL injection payloads: /hprms/admin/doctors/view_doctor.php?id=1' OR '1'='1Check Version:
Check system documentation or about page for version informationVerify Fix Applied:
Test with same payloads and verify proper error handling or rejection📡 Detection & Monitoring
