🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://itsourcecode.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider migrating to alternative student management systems or implementing workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

all

Deploy a WAF with SQL injection rules to block malicious requests to /record.php

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement server-side input validation to sanitize the ID parameter before processing

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the system from internet access and restrict to internal network only
  • Implement strict network segmentation and monitor all traffic to the vulnerable endpoint

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test /record.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in ID parameter (e.g., ' OR '1'='1)

Check Version:

Check application version in admin panel or configuration files

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and return proper error handling

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in database logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts
  • Requests to /record.php with SQL keywords in parameters

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual outbound database connections
  • SQL error messages in HTTP responses

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri_path="/record.php" AND (param="ID" AND value MATCHES "(?i)(union|select|insert|update|delete|drop|or|and)")
