CVE-2025-15183 identifies a SQL injection vulnerability in the Refugee Food Management System version 1.0 developed by code-projects. The vulnerability resides in the /home/viewtakenfd.php script, specifically in the handling of the 'tfid' parameter. Due to insufficient input validation or sanitization, an attacker can remotely inject crafted SQL commands through this parameter, potentially manipulating backend database queries. This can lead to unauthorized data disclosure, data modification, or deletion, compromising the system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability requires no authentication or user interaction, making it easier to exploit remotely over the network. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), reflecting the ease of exploitation and moderate impact. No official patches or fixes have been published yet, and no known exploits are currently active in the wild, but public disclosure increases the risk of exploitation attempts. The Refugee Food Management System is likely used by organizations managing food distribution for refugees, making the data sensitive and critical. Attackers could leverage this vulnerability to access personal or operational data, disrupt services, or pivot to other parts of the network.

For European organizations, especially NGOs, government agencies, and humanitarian groups managing refugee food distribution, this vulnerability poses significant risks. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive personal data of refugees, operational details, or resource allocation information, potentially violating data protection regulations such as GDPR. Data tampering or deletion could disrupt critical food supply chains, impacting vulnerable populations and damaging organizational reputation. The ability to exploit remotely without authentication increases the attack surface, particularly for organizations exposing this system to the internet or poorly segmented internal networks. Additionally, compromised systems could be leveraged as footholds for further attacks within organizational infrastructure. The medium severity score indicates a moderate but tangible threat that requires timely remediation to prevent escalation.

1. Immediate implementation of input validation and sanitization on the 'tfid' parameter in /home/viewtakenfd.php, preferably by using parameterized queries or prepared statements to prevent SQL injection. 2. Restrict network access to the vulnerable endpoint by implementing firewall rules or VPN requirements, limiting exposure to trusted users only. 3. Conduct a thorough code review of the entire application to identify and remediate similar injection flaws. 4. Monitor logs for suspicious query patterns or repeated access attempts targeting the 'tfid' parameter. 5. If possible, isolate the Refugee Food Management System within a segmented network zone to limit lateral movement in case of compromise. 6. Develop and apply patches or updates from the vendor as soon as they become available. 7. Educate staff on the risks of SQL injection and encourage prompt reporting of anomalies. 8. Consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAF) with rules tailored to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting this system.
