📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise leading to data theft, authentication bypass, privilege escalation, and potential remote code execution if database functions allow it.

🟠

Likely Case

Extraction of sensitive user data (passwords, personal information), authentication bypass, and potential website defacement or data manipulation.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if proper input validation, parameterized queries, and web application firewalls are in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability is remotely exploitable via a public-facing web interface with no authentication required.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal systems running this software are still vulnerable but have reduced attack surface compared to internet-facing deployments.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Exploit details are publicly available on GitHub. The vulnerability requires no authentication and has simple exploitation vectors.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://www.campcodes.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider implementing parameterized queries in /forgot-password.php or upgrading to a patched version if released.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall Rule

all

Implement WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns in the email parameter

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

Input Validation Filter

linux

Add server-side validation to restrict email parameter to valid email format

# PHP example: if (!filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) { die('Invalid email'); }

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Disable or restrict access to /forgot-password.php endpoint
  • Implement network segmentation and isolate the vulnerable system from sensitive data

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test the /forgot-password.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the email parameter (e.g., email=test' OR '1'='1)

Check Version:

# Check PHP file headers or version files: grep -r "version\|Version" /path/to/campcodes/

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify that SQL injection payloads no longer work and that parameterized queries are implemented

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL errors in web server logs
  • Multiple failed password reset attempts with SQL patterns
  • Requests to /forgot-password.php with suspicious parameters

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual database queries originating from web server
  • Large data exfiltration from database server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri_path="/forgot-password.php" AND (email="*'*" OR email="*--*" OR email="*;*")
