CVE-2025-10444 is a medium-severity SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the Campcodes Online Job Finder System, specifically affecting the /advancesearch.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'Username' parameter, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code remotely without requiring authentication or user interaction. Exploiting this flaw could enable an attacker to manipulate backend database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, data modification, or disruption of service. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P) indicates that the attack can be performed over the network with low attack complexity, no privileges, and no user interaction, affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability to a limited extent. Although no public exploit is currently known to be actively used in the wild, the existence of a public exploit increases the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability's root cause is typical of SQL injection flaws, where user input is directly embedded into SQL statements without adequate parameterization or escaping, enabling attackers to alter the intended SQL logic. Given that the affected product is an online job finder system, the backend database likely contains sensitive personal information such as usernames, resumes, contact details, and possibly employment history, making the data confidentiality impact significant. Additionally, attackers could potentially modify or delete records, impacting data integrity and availability of the service.

For European organizations using Campcodes Online Job Finder System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of personal data, which is subject to strict regulations such as GDPR. Unauthorized access or leakage of personal identifiable information (PII) could lead to regulatory penalties, reputational damage, and loss of user trust. The ability to alter or delete data could disrupt recruitment operations, impacting business continuity. Since the attack requires no authentication and can be performed remotely, organizations face a heightened risk of automated or targeted exploitation attempts. The medium CVSS score reflects a moderate but tangible threat, especially given the public availability of an exploit. Organizations operating job portals or HR platforms in Europe that rely on this system could be targeted by cybercriminals seeking to harvest personal data or disrupt services. Furthermore, compromised systems could be leveraged as a foothold for further attacks within the organizational network.

To mitigate this vulnerability, organizations should prioritize upgrading or patching the Campcodes Online Job Finder System to a version where this SQL injection flaw is fixed. If an official patch is not yet available, immediate mitigations include implementing Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'Username' parameter in /advancesearch.php. Input validation and sanitization should be enforced at the application level, employing parameterized queries or prepared statements to prevent injection. Conduct thorough code reviews and security testing focusing on all user input handling. Additionally, organizations should monitor logs for suspicious query patterns or repeated failed attempts indicative of exploitation attempts. Restricting database user permissions to the minimum necessary can limit the impact of a successful injection. Regular backups and incident response plans should be in place to recover from potential data integrity or availability incidents. Finally, organizations should educate developers and administrators about secure coding practices and the risks of SQL injection.
