🛠️ 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 with parameterized queries.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Add server-side validation to only accept numeric values for state_id parameter

Add PHP validation: if(!is_numeric($_GET['state_id'])) { die('Invalid input'); }

WAF Rule Implementation

all

Deploy web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns

ModSecurity rule: SecRule ARGS:state_id "@detectSQLi" "id:1001,phase:2,deny,status:403"

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the system in a separate network segment with strict firewall rules
  • Implement database monitoring and alerting for unusual SQL queries

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test /admin/edit_state.php?state_id=1' OR '1'='1 and observe SQL error or unexpected behavior

Check Version:

Check software version in admin panel or readme files

Verify Fix Applied:

Test with malicious inputs and verify proper error handling without SQL errors

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • SQL syntax errors in web server logs
  • Unusual database queries from web application user
  • Multiple failed parameter validation attempts

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests with SQL keywords in state_id parameter
  • Unusual database connection patterns from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND ("state_id" AND ("UNION" OR "SELECT" OR "OR '1'='1"))
