Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |
| CWE-74 | The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2025-7127 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in the itsourcecode Employee Management System version 1.0, specifically in the /admin/changepassword.php file. The vulnerability occurs because the 'currentpassword' parameter is not properly sanitized or validated, allowing an authenticated attacker to inject malicious SQL code. Exploitation requires valid login credentials and a valid session, enabling attackers to manipulate SQL queries remotely. This can lead to unauthorized database access, data leakage, data tampering, and potentially full system control. [1, 2, 3]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can impact you by allowing an authenticated attacker to perform SQL injection attacks that compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your system. Potential impacts include unauthorized access to sensitive data, data leakage, data tampering, full system control by the attacker, and disruption of services. Since the attack can be initiated remotely, it poses a significant security risk if exploited. [2, 3]
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by testing the 'currentpassword' parameter in the /admin/changepassword.php endpoint for SQL injection. One approach is to use sqlmap with the appropriate POST data and session cookie to confirm exploitability. An example payload for testing is a time-based blind SQL injection such as: currentpassword=test' AND (SELECT 1793 FROM (SELECT(SLEEP(5)))AhNh)-- qGGC. Additionally, vulnerable targets can be identified using Google dorking with the query: inurl:admin/changepassword.php. [2, 3]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include: using prepared statements with parameter binding to separate SQL code from user input; implementing strict input validation and filtering to ensure data conforms to expected formats; minimizing database user permissions to the least privilege necessary; and conducting regular security audits to detect and remediate vulnerabilities promptly. Since no known patches are available, replacing the affected product with an alternative is also suggested. [1, 2, 3]
