Detection Guidance

This vulnerability can be detected by monitoring for suspicious GET requests to the egeq.php endpoint that include the eGeqIdEquipe parameter with potentially malicious SQL injection payloads.

Commands to detect this may include using network traffic analysis tools or web server logs to search for unusual or crafted SQL code in the eGeqIdEquipe parameter.

• Use grep or similar tools on web server logs to find requests to egeq.php with suspicious eGeqIdEquipe values, for example: grep 'egeq.php' access.log | grep 'eGeqIdEquipe='
• Use network monitoring tools like tcpdump or Wireshark to capture HTTP GET requests and filter for egeq.php endpoint usage.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediate mitigation steps include restricting access to the egeq.php endpoint to only trusted authenticated users, as the vulnerability requires authentication.

Additionally, input validation and parameter sanitization should be implemented on the eGeqIdEquipe parameter to prevent SQL injection.

If possible, apply patches or updates from the vendor that address this vulnerability.

As a temporary measure, monitor and block suspicious requests targeting the egeq.php endpoint.
