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.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw in WorkOrder CMS version 0.1.0 that allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass the login process. Attackers can manipulate the username and password parameters by injecting malicious SQL code, such as using the payload OR '1'='1' or stacked queries, to trick the system into granting unauthorized access. This happens because the application does not properly sanitize input parameters, enabling attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands against the database. [2, 3]

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow attackers to bypass authentication and gain unauthorized access to the WorkOrder CMS database. They can extract sensitive information such as login credentials, company details, and work order data, or execute administrative commands. This could lead to data compromise, unauthorized data manipulation, and potentially disrupt business operations that rely on the CMS. [1, 2, 3]

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability can be detected by testing the login POST parameters 'userName' and 'password' for SQL injection. You can use commands like curl to send payloads that attempt to bypass authentication, for example: curl -X POST -d "userName=' or '1'='1" -d "password=' or '1'='1" http://target-url/login Additionally, time-based blind SQL injection can be tested by injecting payloads such as ' OR SLEEP(5)-- to observe response delays. Monitoring for unusual login bypass attempts or unexpected database errors can also help detect exploitation attempts. [2]

Mitigation Strategies

Immediate mitigation steps include applying input validation and sanitization on the 'userName' and 'password' parameters to prevent SQL injection. Use prepared statements or parameterized queries in the authentication code to avoid direct concatenation of user inputs into SQL queries. If a patch or updated version of WorkOrder CMS is available, apply it promptly. Additionally, restrict database permissions to limit the impact of potential SQL injection attacks and monitor logs for suspicious activity. [2, 3]
