CVE-2025-6267
📋 TL;DR
This critical SQL injection vulnerability in zhilink ADP Application Developer Platform 1.0.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the barcodeNo, barcode, or itemNo parameters in the /adpweb/a/base/barcodeDetail/ endpoint. Organizations using this specific version of the ADP platform are affected, potentially exposing sensitive database information.
💻 Affected Systems
- zhilink ADP Application Developer Platform
📦 What is this software?
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete database compromise including data exfiltration, data manipulation, privilege escalation, and potential remote code execution if database functions allow it.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to sensitive application data, extraction of user credentials, and potential lateral movement within the database.
If Mitigated
Limited information disclosure if database permissions are properly restricted and input validation is implemented.
🎯 Exploit Status
SQL injection vulnerabilities are typically easy to exploit with standard tools like sqlmap. The vendor has not responded to disclosure attempts.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: None available
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Contact zhilink directly for updates. Consider upgrading to a newer version if available.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Web Application Firewall (WAF) Rules
allImplement WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns targeting the /adpweb/a/base/barcodeDetail/ endpoint
Input Validation Filter
allAdd input validation middleware to sanitize barcodeNo, barcode, and itemNo parameters
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Block external access to the vulnerable endpoint using network ACLs or firewall rules
- Implement database-level protections: restrict application database user permissions to minimum required
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the /adpweb/a/base/barcodeDetail/ endpoint with SQL injection payloads in barcodeNo, barcode, or itemNo parameters
Check Version:
Check application version in admin interface or configuration files
Verify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and that input validation is properly implemented
📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL error messages in application logs
- Multiple rapid requests to /adpweb/a/base/barcodeDetail/ with SQL-like patterns
- Database query errors containing user-supplied input
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests to vulnerable endpoint with SQL keywords (UNION, SELECT, etc.) in parameters
- Unusual database connection patterns from application server
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/adpweb/a/base/barcodeDetail/" AND (param="barcodeNo" OR param="barcode" OR param="itemNo") AND (value="*SELECT*" OR value="*UNION*" OR value="*OR*" OR value="*--*")
