🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Restrict network access to the system using firewall rules to only trusted IP addresses
- Implement database monitoring to detect unusual SQL queries from the web application
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if /home/editrefugee.php exists and contains unsanitized input parameters a/b/c/sex/d/e/nationality_nid in SQL queriesCheck Version:
Check software documentation or about page for version informationVerify Fix Applied:
Test the endpoint with SQL injection payloads to confirm they are properly sanitized or blocked📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
