📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise including admin credential theft, data exfiltration, system takeover, and potential lateral movement to connected systems.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to sensitive student/teacher data, grade manipulation, financial data exposure, and privilege escalation.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and database permission restrictions in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None known

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Implement workarounds or migrate to alternative software.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Add server-side validation to sanitize my_index parameter before processing

Edit /model/get_admin_profile.php to add: if(!is_numeric($_GET['my_index'])) { die('Invalid input'); }

Web Application Firewall Rule

all

Block SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoint

WAF rule: deny requests to /model/get_admin_profile.php containing SQL keywords in my_index parameter

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement network segmentation to isolate the vulnerable system from critical infrastructure
  • Deploy a web application firewall with SQL injection protection rules

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test by sending a request to /model/get_admin_profile.php?my_index=1' OR '1'='1 and checking for SQL errors or unexpected responses

Check Version:

Check system documentation or admin panel for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Test with same payload after implementing fixes - should return error or sanitized response without SQL execution

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Multiple requests to /model/get_admin_profile.php with SQL keywords in parameters
  • Database error logs showing SQL syntax errors from this endpoint

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing SQL injection payloads in GET parameters
  • Unusual database query patterns originating from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/model/get_admin_profile.php" AND (param="my_index" AND value MATCHES "(?i)(union|select|insert|update|delete|drop|--|'|;)")
