CVE-2025-14012 is a SQL injection vulnerability identified in JIZHICMS, a content management system, affecting all versions up to 2.5.5. The vulnerability resides in the Batch Delete Comments component, specifically within the functions deleteAll, findAll, and delete, located in the /index.php/admins/Comment/deleteAll.html file. These functions fail to properly sanitize user input before incorporating it into SQL queries, enabling an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. The attack vector is remote and does not require user interaction, but it does require the attacker to have high privileges (PR:H), indicating that some level of authentication or elevated access is necessary to exploit the flaw. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability at a low level, as indicated by the CVSS vector, but the exploitability is straightforward due to low attack complexity and no user interaction needed. The vendor was notified but has not issued any patches or responses, and public exploit information has been disclosed, increasing the risk of exploitation. No known exploits are currently observed in the wild, but the presence of public exploit code means attackers could develop or deploy attacks rapidly. The lack of vendor response and patch availability necessitates immediate attention from users of JIZHICMS to mitigate potential risks.

For European organizations using JIZHICMS, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized data manipulation or disclosure through SQL injection attacks. Although exploitation requires high privileges, compromised or insider accounts could leverage this flaw to delete or retrieve sensitive comment data, potentially leading to data breaches or defacement of web content. The integrity of user-generated content and administrative data could be undermined, affecting trust and operational continuity. Additionally, attackers might escalate their access or pivot to other systems if the CMS is integrated with broader IT infrastructure. The absence of vendor patches increases the window of exposure, and public exploit availability heightens the threat landscape. Organizations in sectors with high regulatory scrutiny, such as finance, healthcare, or government, could face compliance violations and reputational damage if exploited. The medium severity rating suggests a moderate but tangible risk that requires proactive mitigation to prevent exploitation.

Given the lack of official patches, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. These include restricting access to the affected Batch Delete Comments functionality to trusted administrators only, ideally through network segmentation or VPN access. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoints. Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user inputs at the application level, if possible, by applying temporary code fixes or overrides. Monitor logs for unusual database queries or repeated access attempts to the affected functions. Regularly audit user privileges to ensure only necessary personnel have high-level access to the CMS. Consider isolating or disabling the Batch Delete Comments feature if it is not critical to operations. Finally, maintain heightened awareness for any vendor updates or community patches and plan for prompt application once available.
