CVE-2025-50860 identifies a SQL Injection vulnerability in the Easy Hosting Control Panel (EHCP) version 20.04.1.b, specifically within the listdomains function. The vulnerability arises because the arananalan POST parameter is not properly sanitized or validated before being incorporated into SQL queries. An authenticated attacker with valid credentials can exploit this flaw by injecting malicious SQL code through the arananalan parameter, enabling unauthorized access or manipulation of the backend database. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information or alteration of data integrity. The vulnerability does not require user interaction beyond authentication and can be exploited remotely over the network. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 5.4 (medium severity), reflecting the requirement for authentication (PR:L), no user interaction (UI:N), and limited impact on confidentiality and integrity (C:L/I:L) without affecting availability (A:N). No public exploits have been reported yet, and no patches are currently linked, indicating that organizations should proactively address this issue. The vulnerability is categorized under CWE-89, which corresponds to SQL Injection, a common and critical web application security flaw. Given EHCP's role in managing hosting environments, successful exploitation could compromise hosted domains' data and configurations.

For European organizations, this vulnerability poses a risk primarily to the confidentiality and integrity of hosting control panel databases. Attackers could extract sensitive information such as domain configurations, user credentials, or other stored data, potentially leading to further compromise of hosted services. Data manipulation could disrupt domain management, causing operational issues or enabling privilege escalation. Although availability is not directly impacted, the indirect effects of data tampering could degrade service reliability. Organizations relying on EHCP for web hosting management, especially those hosting multiple domains or clients, face increased risk of data breaches or unauthorized changes. The requirement for authentication reduces the risk from external attackers but insider threats or compromised credentials could be leveraged. The absence of known exploits suggests a window for mitigation before active exploitation occurs. Given the critical nature of hosting infrastructure in Europe’s digital economy, this vulnerability could affect service providers, SMEs, and enterprises using EHCP.

To mitigate CVE-2025-50860, organizations should implement strict input validation and sanitization on the arananalan POST parameter to prevent SQL injection. Employing parameterized queries or prepared statements in the listdomains function is essential to eliminate injection vectors. Restrict access to the EHCP interface to trusted networks and enforce strong authentication mechanisms, including multi-factor authentication, to reduce the risk of credential compromise. Regularly audit and monitor EHCP logs for suspicious activities related to domain listing or database queries. If possible, isolate the EHCP environment from other critical systems to limit lateral movement in case of compromise. Organizations should also track vendor updates or community patches addressing this vulnerability and apply them promptly once available. Conduct security assessments and penetration testing focused on EHCP to identify and remediate similar injection flaws. Finally, educate administrators on secure coding practices and the risks of SQL injection to prevent recurrence.
