CVE-2025-29153 is a medium-severity SQL Injection vulnerability identified in the lemeconsultoria HCM galera.app version 4.58.0. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of user inputs in the Data export and filters functions, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection can lead to unauthorized execution of arbitrary code within the database context. The vulnerability is characterized by CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), indicating that the application fails to properly validate or sanitize inputs before incorporating them into SQL queries. Exploitation requires network access (AV:N), low attack complexity (AC:L), and privileges (PR:L), but no user interaction (UI:N). The scope is unchanged (S:U), and the impact affects confidentiality and integrity to a limited extent (C:L, I:L), with no impact on availability (A:N). No patches or known exploits in the wild have been reported yet. The vulnerability was reserved in March 2025 and published in May 2025, indicating recent discovery and disclosure. The lack of vendor and product details limits precise identification, but the affected software is an HCM (Human Capital Management) application, which typically manages sensitive employee data and organizational workflows.

For European organizations using lemeconsultoria HCM galera.app 4.58.0, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized data exposure and potential data integrity compromise. Attackers exploiting the SQL Injection could access sensitive employee information, manipulate records, or escalate privileges within the application database. Given the nature of HCM systems, this could lead to breaches of personal data protected under GDPR, resulting in regulatory penalties and reputational damage. Although availability is not directly impacted, the integrity and confidentiality breaches could disrupt HR operations and trust in internal systems. The requirement for low privileges to exploit means insider threats or compromised accounts could be leveraged to execute attacks. The absence of known exploits suggests a window for proactive mitigation before widespread exploitation occurs.

Organizations should immediately audit their deployment of lemeconsultoria HCM galera.app to confirm version 4.58.0 usage and restrict access to the Data export and filters functions to trusted users only. Implement strict input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the application code to prevent SQL Injection. If source code modification is not feasible, consider deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL Injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoints. Monitor logs for unusual database query patterns or failed login attempts that could indicate exploitation attempts. Additionally, enforce the principle of least privilege for user accounts interacting with the application, and ensure regular backups of the database to enable recovery in case of data tampering. Engage with the software vendor or community to obtain patches or updates as they become available. Finally, conduct security awareness training for administrators and users to recognize and report suspicious activities.
