CVE-2025-12287 identifies a SQL injection vulnerability in the Bdtask Wholesale Inventory Control and Inventory Management System, specifically affecting version 20251013 and earlier. The vulnerability resides in the /Admin_dashboard/edit_profile endpoint, where the parameters first_name and last_name are improperly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection flaw can be exploited remotely without requiring authentication or user interaction, making it a significant risk for exposed installations. Successful exploitation could enable attackers to read, modify, or delete database records, potentially compromising sensitive inventory, user, or transactional data. The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.1 reflects a medium severity, considering the vulnerability's remote exploitability but requiring high privileges (PR:H) to execute. The vendor has been notified but has not responded or released a patch, increasing the urgency for organizations to implement compensating controls. No public exploits have been observed yet, but the public disclosure increases the risk of future exploitation. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability, as attackers could manipulate inventory data or disrupt system operations. The lack of scope change (S:U) indicates the impact is limited to the vulnerable component and its data. Given the critical role of inventory management in wholesale operations, this vulnerability could have significant operational and financial consequences if exploited.

For European organizations, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive inventory and business data, potentially resulting in data breaches, financial loss, and operational disruption. Wholesale and inventory management systems are critical for supply chain continuity; exploitation could cause inaccurate inventory records, leading to shipment errors or stock shortages. Confidentiality breaches could expose customer or supplier information, violating GDPR and other data protection regulations, resulting in legal and reputational damage. Integrity compromises could allow attackers to alter inventory data, affecting business decisions and financial reporting. Availability impacts could disrupt business operations, especially for companies relying heavily on automated inventory control. The remote exploitability without user interaction increases the risk of automated attacks targeting exposed systems. European companies using Bdtask products without timely patching or mitigations are particularly vulnerable. The lack of vendor response complicates remediation efforts, necessitating proactive defensive measures. Organizations in sectors with complex supply chains or high inventory turnover are at greater risk of operational impact.

Since no official patch is available, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. First, apply strict input validation and sanitization on the first_name and last_name parameters at the web application or proxy level to block malicious SQL payloads. Deploy Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with updated rules to detect and prevent SQL injection attempts targeting the vulnerable endpoint. Restrict network access to the inventory management system’s administrative interface, limiting exposure to trusted internal IP addresses or VPN users only. Conduct thorough code reviews and consider temporary code modifications to parameter handling if feasible. Monitor logs for suspicious activity related to /Admin_dashboard/edit_profile requests, focusing on unusual parameter values or error messages indicative of injection attempts. Implement database least privilege principles to minimize the impact of a successful injection, ensuring the application uses an account with limited permissions. Regularly back up inventory data and test restoration procedures to mitigate data loss or corruption risks. Engage with Bdtask or community forums for updates or unofficial patches. Finally, plan for a migration or upgrade strategy once a vendor patch becomes available.
