| 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-2025-10100 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in SourceCodester Simple Forum Discussion System version 1.0, specifically in the file /admin_class.php when accessed with the parameter action=login. The vulnerability occurs because the Username argument is not properly sanitized, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL code remotely without authentication. This can lead to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or deletion in the database. [1, 2, 3]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can allow attackers to remotely execute SQL injection attacks without authentication, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive data, modification or deletion of database records, and potentially full system compromise or service disruption. This threatens the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system and can impact business continuity. [1, 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 login functionality of the affected system, specifically targeting the 'username' parameter in the /admin_class.php?action=login endpoint for SQL injection. A common approach is to use SQL injection testing tools such as sqlmap to automate detection. For example, a command like `sqlmap -u "http://target/admin_class.php?action=login" --data="username=admin&password=pass" --risk=3 --level=5` can be used to test for SQL injection by injecting payloads into the username parameter. Additionally, manual testing by sending crafted POST requests with SQL injection payloads (e.g., including ' OR 1=1-- ) in the username field can help detect the vulnerability by observing abnormal responses or delays (such as time-based blind SQL injection using SLEEP). [2]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include: 1) Implementing prepared statements with parameter binding to ensure user inputs are not directly included in SQL queries, preventing injection. 2) Enforcing strict input validation and filtering on the username parameter to allow only expected input formats. 3) Minimizing database user privileges by avoiding the use of high-privilege accounts for routine database operations. 4) Conducting regular security audits and code reviews to identify and fix vulnerabilities promptly. If possible, replacing the affected software with a secure alternative is recommended as no known mitigations or patches currently exist. [1, 2, 3]
