| 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. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
AiOPMSD Final 1.0.0 contains a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in the genre.php file. This vulnerability arises because the genre parameter is not properly sanitized, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious SQL code through GET requests.
By exploiting this flaw, attackers can execute arbitrary SQL queries on the database, potentially extracting sensitive information such as usernames, database names, and version details.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
The vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to extract sensitive database information such as usernames, database names, and version details through SQL injection. This unauthorized access to sensitive data could lead to non-compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require safeguarding personal and sensitive information against unauthorized access.
However, the provided information does not explicitly detail the impact on compliance with specific standards or regulations.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive database information. Attackers can extract critical data like usernames and database details without any authentication.
Such unauthorized access can compromise the confidentiality of your data, potentially leading to further attacks or data breaches.
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by monitoring for suspicious GET requests to the genre.php file that include SQL injection payloads in the genre parameter.
One way to detect exploitation attempts is to analyze web server logs for requests to genre.php with unusual or crafted SQL code in the genre parameter.
- Use tools like grep or similar to search logs for patterns such as: genre.php?genre= followed by SQL keywords (e.g., 'SELECT', 'UNION', '--').
- Example command to search Apache access logs for suspicious requests: grep -i "genre.php?genre=" /var/log/apache2/access.log | grep -E "(SELECT|UNION|--|')"
- Use web application firewalls (WAF) or intrusion detection systems (IDS) to detect and alert on SQL injection patterns targeting the genre parameter.
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include restricting or blocking access to the vulnerable genre.php endpoint to prevent exploitation.
Implement input validation and sanitization on the genre parameter to prevent SQL injection attacks.
If possible, apply patches or updates provided by the vendor or security community to fix the vulnerability.
Use a web application firewall (WAF) to detect and block malicious SQL injection attempts targeting the genre parameter.
Monitor logs continuously for suspicious activity and respond promptly to any detected exploitation attempts.
