CVE-2025-13570

6.3 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

This CVE describes a SQL injection vulnerability in the itsourcecode COVID Tracking System 1.0. Attackers can exploit this by manipulating the ID parameter in the /admin/?page=state endpoint to execute arbitrary SQL commands. Organizations using this specific COVID tracking system are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • itsourcecode COVID Tracking System
Versions: 1.0
Operating Systems: Any OS running the web application
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Specifically affects the /admin/?page=state endpoint with ID parameter manipulation.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise including data theft, data manipulation, and potential system takeover via SQL injection leading to remote code execution.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to sensitive COVID tracking data, potential data exfiltration, and database manipulation.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and network segmentation in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability can be exploited remotely and the exploit is publicly available.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Still significant risk if internal users have access, but attack surface is reduced.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Exploit details are publicly available on GitHub, making this easily exploitable by attackers with basic SQL injection knowledge.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://itsourcecode.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider implementing parameterized queries and input validation in the source code.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

all

Deploy a WAF with SQL injection rules to block malicious requests

Input Validation

all

Implement strict input validation for the ID parameter to only accept expected values

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the COVID Tracking System from the internet and restrict access to authorized users only
  • Implement network segmentation to limit database access from the web application server

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test the /admin/?page=state endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the ID parameter

Check Version:

Check the application version in the admin panel or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and proper error handling is in place

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in application logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts from single IP
  • Suspicious parameter values in access logs

Network Indicators:

  • SQL injection patterns in HTTP requests to /admin/?page=state
  • Unusual database connection patterns

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/admin/?page=state" AND (param="ID" AND value MATCHES "[';]|UNION|SELECT|INSERT|UPDATE|DELETE|DROP|CREATE")
