CVE-2025-10620 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the itsourcecode Online Clinic Management System, specifically within the /editp2.php file. The vulnerability arises due to improper sanitization or validation of user-supplied input parameters including id, firstname, lastname, type, age, and address. An attacker can remotely manipulate these parameters to inject malicious SQL code, potentially altering the intended SQL queries executed by the backend database. This could allow unauthorized access to sensitive patient data, modification or deletion of records, or even execution of administrative database commands depending on the database privileges. The vulnerability does not require user interaction but does require low privileges (PR:L) on the system, indicating that some level of authentication or access is needed to exploit it. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.3, reflecting a medium severity level due to the limited scope and impact (confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts are low), no user interaction required, and ease of exploitation (low attack complexity). Although no public exploits are currently known in the wild, the exploit code has been published, increasing the risk of exploitation. Given the nature of the product—a clinic management system—this vulnerability poses a significant risk to patient data confidentiality and integrity, which are critical in healthcare environments. The lack of available patches or mitigations at this time further elevates the urgency for affected organizations to implement protective measures.

For European organizations, particularly healthcare providers using the itsourcecode Online Clinic Management System 1.0, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive patient information, violating GDPR and other data protection regulations. Data integrity could also be compromised, potentially affecting patient care quality and leading to legal and reputational damage. Availability impacts are likely limited but could occur if attackers manipulate database queries to disrupt system operations. The medium severity rating suggests that while the vulnerability is not trivially exploitable without some level of access, the consequences of exploitation in a healthcare context are significant. European healthcare entities are prime targets due to the high value of medical data and strict regulatory environments. Additionally, the remote exploitability increases the attack surface, especially if the system is accessible over the internet or poorly segmented within internal networks.

1. Immediate mitigation should include restricting access to the /editp2.php endpoint to trusted and authenticated users only, ideally through network segmentation and firewall rules. 2. Implement strict input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the application code to prevent SQL injection. 3. If possible, upgrade to a patched version of the software once available or apply vendor-provided patches promptly. 4. Conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing focusing on input handling in all modules. 5. Monitor database logs and application logs for unusual query patterns or errors indicative of injection attempts. 6. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules tailored to detect and block SQL injection payloads targeting the affected parameters. 7. Educate system administrators and developers about secure coding practices and the importance of timely patching. 8. Consider isolating the clinic management system from direct internet exposure and enforce multi-factor authentication for all users with access to the system.
