CVE-2025-4332 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 2.0 of the PHPGurukul Company Visitor Management System, specifically within the /visitor-detail.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of user-supplied input in the 'editid' or 'remark' parameters, which are directly used in SQL queries without adequate validation or parameterization. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject malicious SQL code, potentially manipulating the backend database. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized data access, data modification, or even deletion, compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the visitor management system's data. The vulnerability does not require any user interaction or authentication, making it easier to exploit. Although the CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9 (medium severity), the impact on sensitive visitor data and operational disruption can be significant. No public exploits are currently known in the wild, but the vulnerability details have been disclosed publicly, increasing the risk of exploitation. The lack of available patches necessitates immediate attention to mitigate potential attacks.

For European organizations using PHPGurukul Company Visitor Management System 2.0, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized access to visitor logs and related sensitive information, which may include personal data protected under GDPR. Exploitation could lead to data breaches, regulatory penalties, reputational damage, and operational disruptions. Visitor management systems often integrate with physical security controls; thus, manipulation of visitor data could also impact physical security measures. The remote, unauthenticated nature of the exploit increases the attack surface, especially for organizations exposing the system to the internet or internal networks with insufficient segmentation. Given the critical role visitor management plays in compliance and security, this vulnerability could undermine trust and safety protocols within European enterprises.

1. Immediate mitigation should include restricting external access to the visitor management system, ideally isolating it behind firewalls or VPNs to limit exposure. 2. Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules specifically targeting SQL injection patterns on the affected parameters ('editid' and 'remark'). 3. Conduct manual code review and apply input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements to sanitize user inputs in /visitor-detail.php. 4. If possible, upgrade to a patched version once available or apply vendor-provided fixes. 5. Monitor logs for suspicious activities related to SQL injection attempts on the affected endpoints. 6. Educate internal teams on the risks and ensure incident response plans include this vulnerability. 7. As a longer-term measure, consider migrating to visitor management solutions with stronger security postures and regular security updates.
