Deer Wms 2 by Deerwms
⚠️ 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 data access, extraction of sensitive information from the database, and potential authentication bypass.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and network segmentation in place.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploit details have been publicly disclosed, making exploitation straightforward for attackers with basic SQL injection knowledge.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: https://gitee.com/deerwms/deer-wms-2/issues/ICLRF0
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
Check the vendor advisory for patch availability. If unavailable, implement workarounds immediately.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Web Application Firewall (WAF) Rule
allBlock SQL injection attempts targeting the vulnerable endpoint
WAF specific - configure rule to block requests containing SQL injection patterns to /system/role/authUser/unallocatedList
Network Access Control
linuxRestrict access to the vulnerable endpoint
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [APP_PORT] -m string --string "/system/role/authUser/unallocatedList" --algo bm -j DROP
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict input validation and parameterized queries for all user inputs
- Deploy network segmentation to isolate the vulnerable system and limit lateral movement
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the /system/role/authUser/unallocatedList endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the params[dataScope] parameter
Check Version:
Check application version in admin panel 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 queries in application logs
- Multiple failed authentication attempts
- Requests to /system/role/authUser/unallocatedList with suspicious parameters
Network Indicators:
- Unusual database connections from application server
- Outbound data transfers following SQL injection patterns
SIEM Query:
source="application.logs" AND (url="/system/role/authUser/unallocatedList" AND (params CONTAINS "UNION" OR params CONTAINS "SELECT" OR params CONTAINS "--"))
