📋 TL;DR
Campcodes Cybercafe Management System v1.0 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the view-user-detail.php endpoint that allows attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands. This affects all deployments of this specific version of the software. Attackers could potentially access, modify, or delete database information.
💻 Affected Systems
- Campcodes Cybercafe Management System
📦 What is this software?
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete database compromise including theft of sensitive user data, administrative credentials, financial records, and potential system takeover through privilege escalation.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to user information, session hijacking, and data exfiltration from the cybercafe management database.
If Mitigated
Limited information disclosure if proper input validation and database permissions are configured, but still represents a serious security flaw.
🎯 Exploit Status
The GitHub reference contains proof-of-concept details. Exploitation requires some authentication level but SQL injection techniques are well-documented and automated tools exist.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: UNKNOWN
Vendor Advisory: NONE
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Consider migrating to a supported, maintained alternative or implementing custom fixes with proper input validation and parameterized queries.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation and Sanitization
allImplement strict input validation and parameterized queries in the vulnerable PHP file
Edit /ccms/view-user-detail.php to replace direct variable usage with prepared statements
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy a WAF with SQL injection protection rules
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate the system from internet access and restrict internal network access
- Implement strict database user permissions with least privilege principle
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the /ccms/view-user-detail.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads (e.g., ' OR '1'='1) in user ID parameterCheck Version:
Check software version in admin panel or review source code headersVerify Fix Applied:
Test with SQL injection payloads after implementing fixes - should return error or no data instead of executing SQL📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL error messages in web server logs
- Multiple failed parameter requests to view-user-detail.php
- Database queries with suspicious patterns
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests containing SQL keywords (SELECT, UNION, etc.) to the vulnerable endpoint
- Unusual database connection patterns
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/ccms/view-user-detail.php" AND (query="*SELECT*" OR query="*UNION*" OR query="*OR*1*" OR status="500")
