CVE-2025-12864 identifies a SQL Injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in the U-Office Force product developed by e-Excellence. This vulnerability arises from improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands, allowing an authenticated remote attacker to inject malicious SQL code. Exploitation can lead to unauthorized access to the backend database, enabling the attacker to read sensitive information, modify records, or delete data, severely compromising the application's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability requires low attack complexity and no user interaction, but the attacker must have some level of privileges (authenticated access). The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector, low complexity, no user interaction, and privileges required, with high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No patches or known exploits are currently available, increasing the urgency for organizations to proactively mitigate the risk. The vulnerability affects version 0 of U-Office Force, which may indicate early or initial releases of the product. The lack of patch links suggests the vendor has not yet released a fix, and organizations must rely on compensating controls until a patch is available. Given the nature of SQL Injection, attackers could leverage this vulnerability to pivot within networks or exfiltrate sensitive data, making it a critical concern for data protection and regulatory compliance.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to data security and operational continuity. U-Office Force may be used in various sectors including government, finance, and enterprise environments where sensitive data is processed. Exploitation could lead to data breaches involving personal data protected under GDPR, resulting in legal and financial penalties. The ability to modify or delete database contents could disrupt business operations, cause data loss, and damage organizational reputation. Since the vulnerability requires authenticated access, insider threats or compromised credentials could be leveraged by attackers. The absence of patches increases exposure time, and organizations may face increased risk of targeted attacks once exploit code becomes publicly available. Additionally, the high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability means that critical services relying on this software could be severely affected, potentially impacting national infrastructure or essential services in Europe.

Organizations should immediately conduct a thorough audit of their U-Office Force deployments to identify affected versions. Until a vendor patch is released, implement strict access controls to limit authenticated user privileges, minimizing the risk of exploitation. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL Injection attempts targeting U-Office Force. Review and harden authentication mechanisms to prevent credential compromise. Conduct code reviews and refactor the application to use parameterized queries or prepared statements to eliminate SQL Injection vectors. Monitor database and application logs for unusual query patterns or unauthorized access attempts. Establish incident response plans specific to SQL Injection attacks. Engage with the vendor for timely updates and patches, and apply them promptly once available. Consider network segmentation to isolate critical systems running U-Office Force from broader enterprise networks. Finally, provide security awareness training to users with access to the system to recognize and report suspicious activities.
