  • Monitor and block requests containing EXTRACTVALUE function or SQL injection patterns.

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Send a crafted request to /shoutedit.php with msgid parameter containing SQL injection payload and check for database error responses.

Check Version:

Check xbtitFM version in configuration files or admin panel.

Verify Fix Applied:

Test the same exploit payload after implementing fixes; should return error or no sensitive data.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • HTTP requests to /shoutedit.php with unusual msgid parameters
  • Database error logs showing SQL syntax errors

Network Indicators:
