⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete database compromise allowing data theft, modification, or deletion; potential remote code execution if database permissions allow.
Likely Case
Unauthorized data access, extraction of sensitive information (donor data, financial records), and potential privilege escalation.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper input validation and prepared statements preventing SQL injection.
🎯 Exploit Status
SQL injection via id_produto parameter requires access to the control.php endpoint
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: 3.5.0
Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/LabRedesCefetRJ/WeGIA/security/advisories/GHSA-jx9m-pgf8-v489
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Backup current installation. 2. Download WeGIA version 3.5.0 or later. 3. Replace vulnerable files with patched version. 4. Verify functionality.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allAdd server-side validation to only accept numeric values for id_produto parameter
Modify control.php to validate id_produto parameter with is_numeric() or similar function
WAF Rule
allImplement web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns
Configure WAF to detect and block SQL injection attempts on control.php endpoint
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict input validation for id_produto parameter to only accept numeric values
- Restrict access to control.php endpoint using IP whitelisting or authentication
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test control.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in id_produto parameterCheck Version:
Check WeGIA version in admin panel or configuration filesVerify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and prepared statements are implemented📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL queries in database logs
- Multiple failed parameter validation attempts on control.php
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests to control.php with SQL keywords in parameters
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/control.php" AND (param="id_produto" AND value MATCH "(?i)(SELECT|UNION|INSERT|DELETE|UPDATE|DROP|OR|AND)")
