Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| 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. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'CVE-2026-2217 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability found in itsourcecode Event Management System version 1.0, specifically in the file /admin/manage_user.php.'}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "The vulnerability arises because the application fails to properly sanitize or validate the 'id' parameter before incorporating it into SQL queries. This allows an attacker to manipulate SQL commands by injecting malicious input."}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'The attack can be launched remotely without any authentication, enabling unauthorized execution of arbitrary SQL commands.'}] [1, 2, 3]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
Exploiting this vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to the database, allowing attackers to view, modify, or delete sensitive data.
Attackers may gain full control over the system, cause data tampering, leak sensitive information, or disrupt services, threatening system security and business continuity.
Since the vulnerability requires no authentication and can be exploited remotely, it poses a significant risk to affected systems.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
I don't know
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "This SQL injection vulnerability can be detected by testing the 'id' parameter in the /admin/manage_user.php file for improper input sanitization. Attackers or testers can use SQL injection payloads to verify if the parameter is vulnerable."}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Use boolean-based blind SQL injection payloads such as: id=1 AND 5056=5056&mtype=own'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Use time-based blind SQL injection payloads such as: id=1 AND (SELECT 4118 FROM (SELECT(SLEEP(5)))YHzm)&mtype=own'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Use UNION-based SQL injection payloads to extract data, for example: id=-5971 UNION ALL SELECT CONCAT(0x716b6a6b71,0x6f6c4551685a44626e51484b456f6d43457052694e666372726d4d5057746270636a54617956774a,0x71707a7671),NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL-- -&mtype=own'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': "Use automated tools like sqlmap targeting the 'id' parameter to confirm the vulnerability."}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Search for potentially vulnerable targets using Google dorking with the query: inurl:admin/manage_user.php'}] [1, 3]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'Immediate mitigation steps include implementing secure coding practices and restricting database access to minimize risk.'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Replace the affected product with an alternative that is not vulnerable.'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Use prepared statements with parameter binding to separate SQL code from user input.'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': "Implement strict input validation and filtering to ensure parameters like 'id' conform to expected numeric formats."}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Minimize database user permissions, avoiding use of high-privilege accounts for routine operations.'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Conduct regular security audits to detect and remediate vulnerabilities promptly.'}] [1, 3]
