- Implement database user with minimal permissions (read-only where possible)
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the /admin/voters_add.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the 'firstname' parameter and observe database errors or unexpected behavior.Check Version:
Check system documentation or admin interface for version information. The vulnerable version is specifically 1.0.Verify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer produce database errors or affect system behavior after implementing parameterized queries.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- SQL syntax errors in web server logs
- Unusual database queries from web application
- Multiple failed login attempts to admin interface
Network Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to /admin/voters_add.php containing SQL keywords like UNION, SELECT, OR 1=1
SIEM Query:
source="web_server" AND (uri="/admin/voters_add.php" AND (payload CONTAINS "UNION" OR payload CONTAINS "SELECT" OR payload CONTAINS "OR 1=1"))
