🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: Unknown
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Implement parameterized queries in delete_class.php and validate/sanitize all user inputs.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation and Sanitization
allAdd server-side validation to sanitize user inputs in delete_class.php
Modify PHP code to use prepared statements with parameterized queries
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns
Configure WAF to detect and block SQL injection attempts
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Restrict access to /admin/delete_class.php endpoint using network ACLs
- Implement database user with minimal privileges for the application
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the delete_class.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads (e.g., ' OR '1'='1) and observe database behaviorCheck Version:
Check application version in admin panel or configuration filesVerify Fix Applied:
Attempt SQL injection after implementing parameterized queries; successful queries should fail📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual database queries from delete_class.php
- Multiple failed delete attempts with SQL syntax
Network Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to delete_class.php containing SQL keywords
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/admin/delete_class.php" AND (request_body CONTAINS "UNION" OR request_body CONTAINS "SELECT" OR request_body CONTAINS "OR '1'='1'")
