CVE-2025-41025

5.4 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Poultry Farm Management System v1.0 allows attackers to inject malicious scripts via the 'category' and 'product' parameters in the /farm/sell_product.php endpoint. This affects all users of the vulnerable system, potentially compromising their sessions and data. The vulnerability exists due to insufficient input validation in POST requests.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Poultry Farm Management System
Versions: v1.0
Operating Systems: Any OS running the web application
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: The vulnerability affects the web interface component of the system when accessible via HTTP/HTTPS.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Attackers could steal administrator credentials, hijack user sessions, deface the application, or redirect users to malicious sites, potentially leading to complete system compromise.

🟠

Likely Case

Attackers inject malicious scripts that steal session cookies or credentials from authenticated users, enabling unauthorized access to the farm management system.

🟢

If Mitigated

With proper input validation and output encoding, the malicious scripts would be neutralized, preventing any client-side execution.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Exploitation requires sending crafted POST requests to the vulnerable endpoint, but specific exploit details are not publicly documented.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Not available

Vendor Advisory: https://www.incibe.es/en/incibe-cert/notices/aviso/multiple-vulnerabilities-poultry-farm-management-system

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

1. Review the vendor advisory for updates. 2. Implement input validation and output encoding for the 'category' and 'product' parameters. 3. Sanitize all user inputs before processing.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement server-side validation to reject or sanitize malicious input in the 'category' and 'product' parameters.

Not applicable - requires code modification

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

all

Deploy a WAF with XSS protection rules to block malicious payloads targeting the vulnerable endpoint.

Not applicable - configuration dependent

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Restrict access to the /farm/sell_product.php endpoint to trusted users only using network controls.
  • Implement Content Security Policy (CSP) headers to mitigate script execution from untrusted sources.

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test by submitting a simple XSS payload (e.g., <script>alert('test')</script>) in the 'category' or 'product' parameters via POST to /farm/sell_product.php and check if it executes when the page is viewed.

Check Version:

Check the application's version information in its interface or configuration files, as specific commands are not provided by the vendor.

Verify Fix Applied:

After implementing fixes, repeat the test with XSS payloads to ensure they are properly sanitized or blocked and do not execute in the browser.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual POST requests to /farm/sell_product.php with script tags or encoded payloads in parameters
  • Multiple failed validation attempts on the sell_product endpoint

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP POST traffic to /farm/sell_product.php containing suspicious strings like <script>, javascript:, or encoded characters

SIEM Query:

source="web_server" AND url="/farm/sell_product.php" AND (method="POST") AND (request_body CONTAINS "<script>" OR request_body CONTAINS "javascript:")
