CVE-2025-10062 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in the itsourcecode Student Information Management System version 1.0. The vulnerability exists in the /admin/login.php file, specifically in the handling of the 'uname' parameter. An attacker can manipulate this parameter to inject malicious SQL code, which the system executes without proper sanitization or parameterization. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries against the backend database. The vulnerability does not require any user interaction or privileges to exploit, making it accessible to any remote attacker. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, but limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Although no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, the exploit details have been publicly disclosed, increasing the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability could allow attackers to bypass authentication, extract sensitive student and administrative data, modify or delete records, or potentially escalate privileges within the system. Given that the affected product is a Student Information Management System, the data at risk likely includes personally identifiable information (PII), academic records, and possibly financial or health-related information of students, which are subject to strict data protection regulations such as GDPR in Europe.

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using the itsourcecode Student Information Management System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of student data. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive personal information, violating GDPR and other privacy laws, potentially resulting in legal penalties and reputational damage. Integrity breaches could allow attackers to alter academic records, impacting student outcomes and institutional trust. Availability impact is limited but could occur if attackers execute destructive SQL commands. The remote, unauthenticated nature of the attack increases the threat level, as attackers do not need internal access or user credentials. European educational institutions are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals due to the valuable data they hold and often limited cybersecurity resources, making this vulnerability particularly concerning. Furthermore, the public disclosure of the exploit details raises the likelihood of opportunistic attacks, especially in countries with less mature cybersecurity defenses in the education sector.

Immediate mitigation should focus on patching or upgrading the itsourcecode Student Information Management System to a version where this vulnerability is fixed; however, no patch links are currently provided, so contacting the vendor for updates is critical. In the interim, implement input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the /admin/login.php script to prevent SQL injection. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) configured to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'uname' parameter. Restrict access to the /admin/login.php page by IP whitelisting or VPN access to reduce exposure. Conduct thorough security audits of the system to identify and remediate other injection points. Monitor logs for suspicious login attempts or anomalous database queries. Educate administrators on the risks and signs of SQL injection attacks. Finally, ensure regular backups of the database are maintained to enable recovery in case of data tampering or loss.
