Vendor Advisory: None available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch available. Consider upgrading to a newer version if available or implementing workarounds.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Add input validation to sanitize the _order parameter before processing.

Modify /RbacuserAction.class.php to validate _order parameter using prepared statements or whitelist validation

WAF Rule Implementation

all

Deploy web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns in the _order parameter.

Add WAF rule: Detect SQL keywords in _order parameter values

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Isolate the EasyCMS instance behind a reverse proxy with strict input validation
  • Implement network segmentation to limit database access from the CMS application

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if EasyCMS version is 1.6 or earlier and if /RbacuserAction.class.php exists with vulnerable parameter handling.

Check Version:

Check CMS configuration files or admin panel for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Test the _order parameter with SQL injection payloads to confirm they are properly sanitized or blocked.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual SQL queries in database logs
  • Multiple failed login attempts following SQL error patterns
  • Requests with SQL keywords in _order parameter

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests containing SQL injection patterns in URL parameters
  • Unusual database connection patterns from web server

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (url="*_order=*SELECT*" OR url="*_order=*UNION*" OR url="*_order=*OR*1=1*")
