CVE-2025-14952 is a SQL injection vulnerability identified in Campcodes Supplier Management System version 1.0. The vulnerability resides in the /admin/add_category.php script, where the txtCategoryName parameter is improperly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection flaw can be exploited remotely without any authentication or user interaction, as indicated by the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N). The vulnerability impacts the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the backend database by enabling unauthorized data retrieval, modification, or deletion. The CVSS score of 6.9 (medium severity) reflects the moderate impact and ease of exploitation. Although no known exploits are currently active in the wild, the public availability of exploit code increases the likelihood of attacks. The vulnerability does not require special privileges or user interaction, making it a significant risk for exposed installations. The lack of vendor patches at the time of disclosure necessitates immediate mitigation through secure coding practices such as parameterized queries and input validation. This vulnerability is particularly critical for organizations relying on Campcodes Supplier Management System for managing supplier data, as compromise could lead to supply chain disruptions or data breaches.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized access to sensitive supplier information, potentially leading to data breaches and exposure of confidential business data. The integrity of supplier records could be compromised, resulting in incorrect or malicious modifications that disrupt procurement and supply chain operations. Availability may also be affected if attackers execute destructive SQL commands, causing system downtime or data loss. Organizations in sectors with complex supplier networks, such as manufacturing, automotive, and retail, could experience operational disruptions. The remote and unauthenticated nature of the exploit increases the attack surface, especially for systems accessible over the internet. Given the public availability of exploit code, attackers may attempt to leverage this vulnerability to gain footholds in corporate networks or conduct further lateral movement. The impact extends beyond immediate data compromise to potential regulatory and reputational consequences under European data protection laws such as GDPR.

European organizations should immediately audit their use of Campcodes Supplier Management System version 1.0 and restrict access to the /admin/add_category.php endpoint to trusted internal networks only. Implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the txtCategoryName parameter. Until an official patch is released, apply input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied inputs, especially those interacting with SQL queries. Refactor the application code to use parameterized queries or prepared statements to prevent injection. Conduct thorough security testing, including automated scanning and manual code review, to identify similar injection points. Monitor logs for unusual database query patterns or errors indicative of injection attempts. Educate administrators on the risks and signs of exploitation. Plan for rapid deployment of vendor patches once available and maintain an incident response plan for potential compromise scenarios. Additionally, segment supplier management systems from critical internal networks to limit lateral movement.
