CVE-2025-14012 is a SQL injection vulnerability identified in JIZHICMS, a content management system, affecting versions 2.5.0 through 2.5.5. The vulnerability resides in the batch comment deletion component, specifically in the deleteAll, findAll, and delete functions located in /index.php/admins/Comment/deleteAll.html. An attacker with high privileges can remotely craft malicious input to manipulate SQL queries executed by these functions, leading to unauthorized database access or modification. The vulnerability does not require user interaction but does require authentication with elevated privileges, limiting the attack surface to authenticated users with administrative rights. The CVSS 4.0 score is 5.1 (medium severity), reflecting the moderate impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, and the ease of exploitation given the lack of required user interaction and low attack complexity. The vendor was notified but has not issued a patch or response, and while public exploit code exists, no active exploitation in the wild has been reported. This vulnerability could allow attackers to extract sensitive data, alter or delete database records, or disrupt CMS functionality, potentially impacting website integrity and availability.

For European organizations using JIZHICMS, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized data exposure, data manipulation, and service disruption. Attackers exploiting this flaw could access or modify sensitive information stored in the CMS database, including user comments and potentially other related data. This could lead to reputational damage, regulatory non-compliance (e.g., GDPR violations due to data breaches), and operational downtime. Since the vulnerability requires high privileges, insider threats or compromised administrative accounts are the most likely vectors. The lack of vendor response and patches increases the risk exposure duration. Organizations relying on JIZHICMS for public-facing websites or internal portals may face targeted attacks aiming to deface content or disrupt services, impacting business continuity and trust.

European organizations should immediately audit their JIZHICMS installations to identify affected versions (2.5.0 to 2.5.5). Until an official patch is released, implement strict access controls to limit administrative privileges only to trusted personnel and enforce strong authentication mechanisms to reduce the risk of credential compromise. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoints, particularly /index.php/admins/Comment/deleteAll.html. Regularly monitor logs for suspicious activity related to comment deletion functions. Consider isolating or disabling the batch comment deletion feature if not essential. Additionally, conduct security awareness training for administrators to recognize phishing or social engineering attempts that could lead to privilege escalation. Plan for timely patching once the vendor releases an update or consider migrating to alternative CMS platforms with active security support.
