| 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?
This vulnerability is a security flaw found in code-projects Easy Blog Site version 1.0, specifically in the file post.php. It involves a manipulation of the argument 'tags' which leads to an SQL injection vulnerability. This means an attacker can remotely inject malicious SQL code through the 'tags' parameter, potentially compromising the database.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability allows remote attackers to perform SQL injection attacks by manipulating the 'tags' argument. This can lead to unauthorized access to or modification of the database, potentially exposing sensitive data, corrupting data integrity, or disrupting the normal operation of the application.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
The SQL injection vulnerability in Easy Blog Site 1.0 allows attackers to access, modify, or delete sensitive data without authorization. Such unauthorized access and potential data breaches can lead to non-compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which mandate the protection of personal and sensitive information.
Failure to secure the application against this vulnerability could result in exposure of personal data, violating confidentiality and integrity requirements imposed by these standards, potentially leading to legal penalties and reputational damage.
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by testing the 'tags' parameter in the 'post.php' file of Easy Blog Site 1.0 for SQL injection weaknesses.
Some example payloads to test include:
- Boolean-based blind injection: tags=acm' AND 2141=2141 AND 'xoez'='xoez
- Error-based injection (MySQL >= 5.0): using OR (SELECT ...) to extract data from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PLUGINS
- Time-based blind injection (MySQL >= 5.0.12): using SLEEP(5) to infer query results based on response delay
- UNION query injection: combining results with UNION ALL SELECT CONCAT(...)
A practical detection command would be to send crafted HTTP GET requests to the vulnerable endpoint, for example:
- curl "http://<target>/blog/posts/post.php?tags=acm' AND 1=1 -- "
- curl "http://<target>/blog/posts/post.php?tags=acm' OR SLEEP(5) -- " (to test time-based injection)
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include:
- Use prepared statements with parameter binding to separate SQL code from user input, preventing SQL injection.
- Implement strict input validation and filtering to ensure that inputs conform to expected formats.
- Minimize database user permissions by avoiding the use of high-privilege accounts (such as root or admin) for routine database operations.
