CVE-2025-24664 identifies a critical SQL Injection vulnerability in the enituretechnology LTL Freight Quotes – Worldwide Express Edition software, versions up to 5.0.20. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of special characters in SQL commands, which allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code. This can enable unauthorized access to backend databases, data exfiltration, modification, or deletion of freight quote information, and potentially compromise the integrity and availability of the application. The affected product is used for generating less-than-truckload freight quotes globally, making it a valuable target for attackers seeking to disrupt logistics operations or steal sensitive commercial data. Although no public exploits have been reported yet, the vulnerability is publicly disclosed and thus may attract attackers. The lack of a CVSS score requires an assessment based on the vulnerability’s characteristics: SQL Injection is a well-known, high-impact attack vector that is relatively easy to exploit if input validation is insufficient. The vulnerability does not specify authentication requirements, but typically such quoting tools are integrated into business workflows, which may require user access. The absence of patches at the time of disclosure increases risk. Organizations using this software should urgently review their exposure and prepare to apply vendor patches or implement compensating controls. Monitoring database query logs and restricting database permissions can help mitigate impact until patches are available.

The impact of this SQL Injection vulnerability is significant for organizations using the affected freight quoting software. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive logistics data, including pricing, shipment details, and customer information, which could harm business confidentiality and competitive advantage. Attackers might also alter freight quotes or disrupt the quoting process, impacting business integrity and operational availability. In worst cases, attackers could escalate access within the backend database environment, potentially compromising other integrated systems. Given the global nature of freight logistics, disruption or data breaches could have cascading effects on supply chains and customer trust. The lack of current known exploits reduces immediate risk but the public disclosure increases the likelihood of future attacks. Organizations without timely mitigation may face financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory consequences if customer data is exposed.

To mitigate CVE-2025-24664, organizations should: 1) Monitor enituretechnology’s official channels for patches addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once released. 2) Implement strict input validation and sanitization on all user inputs interacting with the LTL Freight Quotes application, ensuring special characters are properly escaped or rejected. 3) Employ parameterized queries or prepared statements in the application code to prevent SQL Injection. 4) Restrict database user permissions to the minimum necessary, limiting the potential damage from any injection attack. 5) Enable detailed logging and monitoring of database queries and application logs to detect anomalous or suspicious activity indicative of injection attempts. 6) Conduct security assessments or penetration tests focusing on injection flaws in the affected application environment. 7) Consider network segmentation to isolate the freight quoting system from critical infrastructure until the vulnerability is remediated. 8) Educate developers and administrators about secure coding practices related to database interactions. These measures collectively reduce the risk and impact of exploitation beyond generic patching advice.
