6.3 MEDIUM

📋 TL;DR

This is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in zhilink ADP Application Developer Platform 1.0.0 that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the extId parameter in the /adpweb/a/sys/office/treeData endpoint. Organizations using this specific version of the ADP platform are affected and should take immediate action.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • zhilink ADP Application Developer Platform
Versions: 1.0.0
Operating Systems: Any OS running the ADP platform
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All deployments of version 1.0.0 are vulnerable. The vulnerability exists in the web interface component.

📦 What is this software?

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete database compromise including data theft, modification, or deletion; potential remote code execution if database configuration permits.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized data access and extraction from the application database, potentially including sensitive business or user information.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation, parameterized queries, and database permission restrictions in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability is remotely exploitable and the exploit is publicly disclosed.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Still significant risk if internal attackers exist or if external attackers gain internal access through other means.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ✅ No
Complexity: LOW

Exploit details are publicly disclosed on vuldb.com. The vulnerability requires access to the affected endpoint but may not require authentication depending on application configuration.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: UNKNOWN

Vendor Advisory: NONE

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Vendor did not respond to disclosure. Consider upgrading to a newer version if available or implementing workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall (WAF) Rules

all

Implement WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns targeting the /adpweb/a/sys/office/treeData endpoint and extId parameter.

Input Validation Filter

all

Add server-side input validation to sanitize the extId parameter before processing.

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the ADP platform behind a reverse proxy with strict input validation
  • Implement network segmentation to limit database access from the application server

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test the /adpweb/a/sys/office/treeData endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the extId parameter. Monitor for database errors or unexpected responses.

Check Version:

Check application version through admin interface or configuration files. The vulnerable version is specifically 1.0.0.

Verify Fix Applied:

After implementing workarounds, test with the same SQL injection payloads to ensure they are blocked or sanitized.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual database queries from web application
  • SQL syntax errors in application logs
  • Multiple requests to /adpweb/a/sys/office/treeData with unusual parameters

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing SQL keywords (SELECT, UNION, etc.) in URL parameters
  • Unusual traffic patterns to the vulnerable endpoint

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/adpweb/a/sys/office/treeData" AND (param="extId" AND value CONTAINS "' OR ")
