No official patch available. Consider migrating to a supported alternative or implementing workarounds.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation and Sanitization
allImplement strict input validation and parameterized queries for the 'mode' parameter in /payment_save.php.
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy a WAF with SQL injection rules to block malicious requests to /payment_save.php.
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate the system from the internet and restrict access to internal networks only.
- Implement network segmentation and monitor all traffic to /payment_save.php for suspicious SQL patterns.
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the /payment_save.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the 'mode' parameter and observe database errors or unexpected behavior.Check Version:
Check the software version in the admin panel or configuration files; expected to be 1.0.Verify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and that parameterized queries are implemented.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL queries in application logs, errors from /payment_save.php, or unexpected database access patterns.
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests to /payment_save.php with SQL keywords in parameters, especially in the 'mode' field.
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/payment_save.php" AND (param="mode" AND value CONTAINS "UNION" OR "SELECT" OR "INSERT" OR "DELETE")
