Versions: 5.0.2
Operating Systems: All
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All installations of Funadmin 5.0.2 with the curd/table/savefield endpoint enabled are vulnerable.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise including data exfiltration, modification, deletion, or potential remote code execution if database permissions allow.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized data access, privilege escalation, or data manipulation within the Funadmin database.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and database user privilege restrictions.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerable endpoint is typically accessible via web interface, making internet-facing installations particularly vulnerable.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal systems are still vulnerable but have reduced attack surface compared to internet-facing deployments.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

SQL injection vulnerabilities typically have low exploitation complexity, but authentication requirements may limit attack vectors.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/funadmin/funadmin/issues/26

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Monitor the GitHub issue for official patch. 2. Apply patch when available. 3. Test in development environment before production deployment.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable vulnerable endpoint

all

Temporarily disable or restrict access to the curd/table/savefield endpoint

# Configure web server to block /curd/table/savefield
# Example for Apache: RewriteRule ^curd/table/savefield - [F]
# Example for Nginx: location ~ ^/curd/table/savefield { return 403; }

Implement WAF rules

all

Add SQL injection detection rules to web application firewall

# Add SQL injection detection patterns to WAF
# Example ModSecurity rule: SecRule ARGS "@detectSQLi" "id:1001,phase:2,deny"

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict input validation and parameterized queries for all database operations
  • Restrict database user permissions to minimum required privileges

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if Funadmin version is 5.0.2 and the curd/table/savefield endpoint accepts SQL injection payloads

Check Version:

# Check Funadmin version in configuration files or admin interface

Verify Fix Applied:

Test the curd/table/savefield endpoint with SQL injection payloads after applying fixes

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in database logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts followed by SQL injection patterns
  • Access to curd/table/savefield with suspicious parameters

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP POST requests to /curd/table/savefield containing SQL keywords
  • Unusual database connection patterns from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/curd/table/savefield" AND (payload CONTAINS "UNION" OR payload CONTAINS "SELECT" OR payload CONTAINS "INSERT" OR payload CONTAINS "DELETE")
