CVE-2025-13210 is a SQL injection vulnerability identified in the itsourcecode Inventory Management System version 1.0, specifically within the /admin/products/index.php?view=add endpoint. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of the PROMODEL parameter, which can be manipulated by an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL queries. This flaw allows remote exploitation without requiring user interaction; however, it requires the attacker to have high privileges (PR:H) on the system, which limits the ease of exploitation. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability to a limited extent (VC:L, VI:L, VA:L) and does not require user interaction or special authentication beyond high privileges. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), no user interaction (UI:N), and no scope change (S:U). Although no known exploits are currently active in the wild, the public disclosure of the vulnerability increases the risk of future exploitation. The vulnerability could allow attackers to extract sensitive inventory data, modify records, or disrupt inventory management operations, potentially impacting business continuity and data integrity. The lack of available patches at the time of disclosure necessitates immediate mitigation through alternative controls such as input validation and web application firewalls.

For European organizations using itsourcecode Inventory Management System 1.0, this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive inventory data, manipulation of product records, and potential disruption of inventory operations. This could result in financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory non-compliance, especially under GDPR if personal or sensitive data is involved. The requirement for high privileges to exploit reduces the risk from external attackers but raises concerns about insider threats or compromised accounts. Industries with critical supply chains, such as manufacturing, retail, and logistics, may experience operational disruptions. The moderate CVSS score reflects a balanced risk, but organizations should not underestimate the potential impact on data integrity and availability. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently limits immediate threats but does not eliminate future risk, particularly as exploit code may be developed following public disclosure.

1. Apply official patches or updates from itsourcecode as soon as they become available to address the SQL injection vulnerability directly. 2. Implement strict input validation and sanitization on the PROMODEL parameter and all user-supplied inputs to prevent injection attacks. 3. Deploy Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with rules designed to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting the affected endpoint. 4. Restrict administrative access to the inventory management system to trusted personnel and enforce strong authentication and access controls to minimize the risk of privilege escalation. 5. Conduct regular security audits and code reviews focusing on input handling and database interactions within the application. 6. Monitor logs for unusual database queries or access patterns that could indicate exploitation attempts. 7. Segment the inventory management system network to limit exposure in case of compromise. 8. Educate staff about the risks of privilege misuse and implement least privilege principles to reduce insider threat potential.
