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.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw in the Performance Indicator System 1.0. It exists in the file /opils/staff/product.php where the 'Category' parameter is not properly validated. Attackers can inject malicious SQL queries through this parameter, allowing them to manipulate the database without authentication.

Detection Guidance

To detect this SQL injection vulnerability, monitor network traffic for suspicious GET requests targeting /opils/staff/product.php with unusual parameters like 'Category'. Use tools like SQLmap to test for SQLi by sending crafted requests: sqlmap -u 'http://target.com/opils/staff/product.php?Category=1' --batch.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability allows attackers to access sensitive data, modify or delete database records, and potentially disrupt system services. Since no login is required, the attack can be executed remotely via a crafted GET request.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access or exposure of sensitive data, violating GDPR and HIPAA requirements for data protection and confidentiality. Non-compliance may result in legal penalties and reputational damage.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately apply input validation to sanitize the 'Category' parameter. Replace dynamic SQL queries with prepared statements using parameterized queries. Restrict database user permissions to least privilege. Conduct a security audit to identify other potential vulnerabilities.
