🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: https://itsourcecode.com/
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
No official patch available. Consider migrating to a supported version or implementing workarounds.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation and Sanitization
allImplement parameterized queries and input validation for the email parameter
Modify /login/login.php to use prepared statements: $stmt = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = ?'); $stmt->bind_param('s', $email);
Web Application Firewall (WAF)
allDeploy WAF rules to block SQL injection patterns
Add WAF rule: SecRule ARGS:email "@detectSQLi" "id:1001,phase:2,deny,status:403"
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Isolate the 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 the login page with SQL injection payloads like ' OR '1'='1 in the email parameterCheck Version:
Check the system version in admin panel or configuration filesVerify Fix Applied:
Verify that SQL injection payloads no longer work and that prepared statements are implemented📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL errors in application logs
- Multiple failed login attempts with SQL patterns

Network Indicators:
- HTTP requests to /login/login.php with SQL injection patterns in parameters
- Unusual database connections from web server
SIEM Query:
source="web_logs" AND uri="/login/login.php" AND (email="*' OR*" OR email="*UNION*" OR email="*SELECT*")
