CVE-2024-2865

9.8 CRITICAL

📋 TL;DR

This SQL injection vulnerability in Mergen Software Quality Management System allows attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands through unvalidated user input. All systems running affected versions are vulnerable, potentially exposing database contents and system control.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Mergen Software Quality Management System
Versions: through 25032024
Operating Systems: All
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All installations of affected versions are vulnerable regardless of configuration.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

Recommended Actions:
  1. Review the CVE details at NVD
  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise leading to data theft, data manipulation, authentication bypass, and potential remote code execution on the database server.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized data access, extraction of sensitive information, and potential privilege escalation within the application.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation and parameterized queries preventing successful exploitation.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: HIGH

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes

SQL injection vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity, especially when unauthenticated.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://www.usom.gov.tr/bildirim/tr-24-0229

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Check vendor advisory for patch availability. 2. If patch exists, download from official source. 3. Apply patch following vendor instructions. 4. Test application functionality.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall

all

Deploy WAF with SQL injection rules to block malicious requests

Input Validation

all

Implement strict input validation on all user-supplied parameters

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the system from internet access and restrict to internal network only
  • Implement network segmentation and strict access controls to limit potential damage

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check application version against affected range. Test input fields with SQL injection payloads in controlled environment.

Check Version:

Check application interface or configuration files for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify version is updated beyond 25032024. Conduct penetration testing with SQL injection payloads.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual database queries
  • SQL syntax errors in application logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts with SQL payloads

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing SQL keywords (SELECT, UNION, etc.)
  • Abnormal database connection patterns

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND ("SELECT" OR "UNION" OR "INSERT" OR "DELETE") AND status="200"
