🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized access to sensitive student records, grades, personal information, and potential privilege escalation within the application.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper input validation and database permissions, potentially only error messages or partial data exposure.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

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

Exploit published on GitHub; requires access to admin interface but SQL injection is straightforward once authenticated.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://itsourcecode.com/

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider migrating to alternative software or implementing workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Add parameter validation to only accept numeric IDs in admin_single_student.php

Modify PHP code to use: if(!is_numeric($_GET['ID'])) { die('Invalid input'); }

WAF Rule

all

Implement web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns

Add WAF rule: Detect and block SQL keywords in ID parameter

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Restrict access to /admin_single_student.php using IP whitelisting or network segmentation
  • Implement database user with minimal permissions (read-only if possible) for the application

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Test ID parameter with SQL injection payloads: /admin_single_student.php?ID=1' OR '1'='1

Check Version:

Check system documentation or about page; version may be displayed in footer or admin panel

Verify Fix Applied:

Attempt SQL injection tests; successful fix should return error or no data manipulation

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL errors in application logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts followed by admin_single_student.php access
  • Database queries with unusual syntax from web server IP

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests to admin_single_student.php with SQL keywords in parameters
  • Unusual database traffic patterns from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND uri="/admin_single_student.php" AND (param="*UNION*" OR param="*SELECT*" OR param="*OR*" OR param="*'*" OR param="*--*" OR param="*;*")
