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
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include implementing secure coding practices and restricting database access.
- Implement prepared statements and parameter binding to separate SQL code from user input.
- Enforce strict input validation and filtering to ensure inputs conform to expected formats.
- Minimize database user permissions by avoiding high-privilege accounts for routine operations.
- Conduct regular security audits to detect and address vulnerabilities promptly.
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2026-5675 is a SQL injection vulnerability found in the Construction Management System version 1.0, specifically in the /borrowed_tool.php file within the Parameter Handler component. The vulnerability occurs due to improper sanitization and validation of the 'emp' parameter, which can be manipulated by an attacker to inject malicious SQL code.
This vulnerability is a time-based blind SQL injection affecting MySQL versions 5.0.12 and above. Exploitation requires prior authentication or access to the system, and attackers can use techniques such as the SLEEP function to confirm the injection point.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
The SQL injection vulnerability in the Construction Management System 1.0 allows unauthorized database access, data leakage, and data tampering. Such impacts can lead to violations of data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require the protection of sensitive personal and health information from unauthorized access and breaches.
Failure to remediate this vulnerability could result in non-compliance with these standards due to compromised data confidentiality, integrity, and availability, potentially leading to legal penalties and loss of trust.
Recommended remediation steps such as implementing prepared statements, strict input validation, minimizing database permissions, and regular security audits are essential to maintain compliance with these regulations.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
Exploiting this vulnerability can have severe impacts including unauthorized access to the database, leakage of sensitive information, data tampering, and potentially full control over the affected system.
Additionally, attackers may disrupt services, threatening both system security and business continuity.
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by testing the 'emp' parameter in the /borrowed_tool.php file for SQL injection, specifically a time-based blind SQL injection. A common approach is to use automated tools like sqlmap to test the parameter.
- Use sqlmap targeting the 'emp' POST parameter to confirm the injection point.
- Example command: sqlmap -u "http://target/borrowed_tool.php" --data="emp=1" --technique=T --dbms=MySQL
