Technical Analysis

CVE-2024-0484 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the code-projects Fighting Cock Information System, specifically within the admin/action/update_mother.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'age_mother' parameter, which is susceptible to malicious input manipulation. An attacker can exploit this flaw remotely without requiring user interaction but does require some level of privileges (PR:L) to initiate the attack. The injection allows an adversary to interfere with the backend SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion. The CVSS v3.1 score is 6.3, indicating a medium severity, with impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though the impact on confidentiality and integrity is limited (C:L/I:L) and availability is also affected (A:L). The vulnerability does not currently have a publicly available patch, and no known exploits are reported in the wild, but the exploit details have been disclosed publicly, increasing the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-89, which corresponds to improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command ('SQL Injection').

Potential Impact

For European organizations using the Fighting Cock Information System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, including potentially personal or business-critical information, violating GDPR requirements and leading to regulatory penalties. Integrity of data could be compromised, affecting business operations and decision-making. Availability impacts could disrupt services relying on this system, causing operational downtime. Given the remote exploitability and lack of user interaction, attackers can automate attacks, increasing the threat level. Organizations in sectors such as healthcare, finance, or government using this system could face severe operational and reputational damage. The medium CVSS score suggests that while the vulnerability is serious, exploitation requires some privileges, which may limit exposure but still demands urgent remediation.

Mitigation Recommendations

Immediate mitigation should focus on input validation and sanitization of the 'age_mother' parameter to prevent SQL injection. Employ parameterized queries or prepared statements in the affected PHP script to ensure that user input is not directly concatenated into SQL commands. Conduct a thorough code review of all input handling in the Fighting Cock Information System to identify and remediate similar injection points. Implement web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting this parameter. Restrict access to the admin interface to trusted IP addresses and enforce strong authentication mechanisms to reduce the risk of privilege escalation. Monitor logs for suspicious activities related to the 'update_mother.php' endpoint. Since no official patch is available, consider isolating or disabling the vulnerable functionality temporarily if feasible. Finally, maintain an incident response plan to quickly address any exploitation attempts.
