🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: https://code-projects.org/
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Consider migrating to alternative software or implementing custom fixes.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allAdd parameter validation to ensure ID parameter contains only numeric values
Modify /justines/admin/mod_amenities/index.php to validate $_GET['ID'] with is_numeric() or similar
WAF Rule Implementation
allDeploy web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns
Add WAF rule: Detect and block SQL keywords in ID parameter

🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the vulnerable endpoint with SQL injection payloads: /justines/admin/mod_amenities/index.php?view=view&ID=1' OR '1'='1Check Version:
Check software version in documentation or configuration filesVerify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection payloads no longer execute and return error messages or are properly sanitized📡 Detection & Monitoring
