Remote SQL Injection in AccountStatus View via UserID Parameter

Publication date: 2026-05-27

Last updated on: 2026-05-27

Assigner: CERT VDE

Description
A high privileged remote attacker can exploit an unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability in the accountstatus view userid parameter due to improper neutralization of special elements in a SQL UPDATE command allowing for reading the whole database and changing values in a non critical table. This can result in a total loss of confidentiality and some loss of integrity.

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 an unauthenticated SQL Injection in the accountstatus view userid parameter. It occurs because special elements in a SQL UPDATE command are not properly neutralized. A high privileged remote attacker can exploit this to read the entire database and modify values in a non-critical table.

Impact Analysis

Exploiting this vulnerability can lead to a total loss of confidentiality, meaning sensitive data in the database can be fully exposed. Additionally, there can be some loss of integrity, as the attacker can change values in a non-critical table.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows a high privileged remote attacker to exploit an unauthenticated SQL Injection, resulting in total loss of confidentiality and some loss of integrity by reading the whole database and changing values in a non-critical table.

Such a loss of confidentiality and integrity could negatively impact compliance with common standards and regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require protection of sensitive data and maintaining data integrity.
