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.
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.

Compliance Impact

The SQL injection vulnerability in the itsourcecode Content Management System 1.0 allows unauthorized database access, data leakage, and tampering. Such unauthorized access and potential exposure of sensitive data can lead to non-compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require safeguarding personal and sensitive information against unauthorized access and breaches.

Because the vulnerability enables attackers to manipulate database queries remotely and potentially access or alter sensitive data, organizations using this CMS may face risks of violating confidentiality, integrity, and availability requirements mandated by these standards.

Mitigations such as input validation, prepared statements, and minimizing database permissions are recommended to reduce these compliance risks.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw found in the itsourcecode Content Management System version 1.0. It specifically affects the 'topic_id' parameter in the /admin/update_ss_img.php file, which does not properly sanitize user input.

Attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely by injecting malicious SQL queries through the 'topic_id' parameter, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the database.

The exploit does not require authentication, meaning anyone can attempt to exploit this flaw without logging in.

Impact Analysis

Exploiting this vulnerability can allow attackers to access, leak, or tamper with sensitive data stored in the database.

Attackers may gain control over the system, potentially disrupting services or causing denial of service.

The vulnerability can lead to unauthorized database access without needing valid credentials, increasing the risk of data breaches.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability can be detected by testing the /admin/update_ss_img.php endpoint for SQL injection via the 'topic_id' parameter. Since the vulnerability allows injection without authentication, you can attempt to inject SQL payloads directly.

  • Use curl or similar tools to send crafted requests to the vulnerable parameter, for example: curl "http://targetsite.com/admin/update_ss_img.php?topic_id=1' UNION SELECT NULL--"
  • Use automated SQL injection detection tools like sqlmap targeting the 'topic_id' parameter: sqlmap -u "http://targetsite.com/admin/update_ss_img.php?topic_id=1" --batch

Monitoring network traffic for unusual or suspicious requests to /admin/update_ss_img.php with unexpected SQL syntax in the 'topic_id' parameter can also help detect exploitation attempts.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediate mitigation steps include applying input validation and using prepared statements to prevent SQL injection in the 'topic_id' parameter.

  • Implement prepared statements or parameterized queries in the /admin/update_ss_img.php script.
  • Sanitize and validate all user inputs, especially the 'topic_id' parameter.
  • Minimize database user permissions to limit the impact of a potential exploit.
  • Conduct regular security audits and code reviews to identify and fix similar vulnerabilities.

If a patch or update is available from the vendor, apply it immediately to fix the vulnerability.
