Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Vendor has not responded to disclosure. Consider workarounds or alternative solutions.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement strict input validation for the formKey parameter to reject SQL injection patterns

WAF Rule Implementation

all

Deploy web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoint

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the vulnerable system from internet access and restrict internal network access
  • Implement database user privilege restrictions to limit potential damage from successful exploitation

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if running tduck-platform version 5.1. Review application logs for SQL injection attempts against UserFormDataMapper endpoints.

Check Version:

Check application configuration files or deployment manifests for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Test the vulnerable endpoint with SQL injection payloads to confirm they are properly rejected or sanitized.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in application logs
  • Multiple failed parameter validation attempts
  • Suspicious formKey parameter values containing SQL keywords

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests with SQL injection patterns in formKey parameter
  • Unusual database connection patterns from application server

SIEM Query:

source="application_logs" AND ("formKey" AND ("UNION" OR "SELECT" OR "INSERT" OR "DELETE" OR "DROP"))
