Test the /inventory_form.php endpoint with SQL injection payloads in the chem_name parameter.Check Version:
Check software version in admin panel or configuration files.Verify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and input is properly validated.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL queries in database logs
- Multiple failed login attempts or parameter manipulation in web server logs
Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests to /inventory_form.php with SQL keywords in parameters
SIEM Query:
source="web_server" AND uri="/inventory_form.php" AND (param="chem_name" AND value CONTAINS "UNION" OR "SELECT" OR "--" OR "' OR '1'='1")🔗 References
