📦 What is this software?
Vehicle Management by Code Projects
⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete database compromise allowing data exfiltration, data destruction, or remote code execution on the underlying server.
Likely Case
Unauthorized access to sensitive vehicle management data, customer information, or administrative credentials.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and network segmentation in place.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploit details are publicly available on GitHub and vuldb.com. SQL injection is a well-understood attack vector.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: https://code-projects.org/
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Check vendor website for updates 2. Apply any available patches 3. Test functionality after patching
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allImplement strict input validation for the 'from' parameter in filter2.php
Modify filter2.php to validate/sanitize user input before database queries
WAF Rule Implementation
allDeploy web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns
Add WAF rule: Detect and block SQL injection attempts on /filter2.php
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate the vulnerable system behind a reverse proxy with strict input filtering
- Implement network segmentation to limit database access from the web server
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test /filter2.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads (e.g., ' OR '1'='1) and monitor database responsesCheck Version:
Check software version in admin panel or configuration filesVerify Fix Applied:
Retest with SQL injection payloads after implementing fixes; verify no database errors or unexpected data returns📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual database queries from web server
- SQL syntax errors in application logs
- Multiple failed login attempts via filter2.php
Network Indicators:
- Unusual SQL patterns in HTTP POST requests to /filter2.php
- Excessive database connections from web server
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/filter2.php" AND (payload="' OR" OR payload="UNION" OR payload="SELECT" OR payload="--")
