Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable system is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed below, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed “remotely exploitable” and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: The attacker must take no measurable action to exploit the vulnerability. The attack requires no target-specific circumvention to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable system.
Attack Requirements: None: The successful attack does not depend on the deployment and execution conditions of the vulnerable system. The attacker can expect to be able to reach the vulnerability and execute the exploit under all or most instances of the vulnerability.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without interaction from any human user, other than the attacker.
Vulnerable system confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system integrity: Low: Modification of data is possible, but the attacker does not have control over the consequence of a modification, or the amount of modification is limited. The data modification does not have a direct, serious impact to the Vulnerable System.
Vulnerable system availability: Low: Performance is reduced or there are interruptions in resource availability. Even if repeated exploitation of the vulnerability is possible, the attacker does not have the ability to completely deny service to legitimate users. The resources in the Vulnerable System are either partially available all of the time, or fully available only some of the time, but overall there is no direct, serious consequence to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the Subsequent System or all confidentiality impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the Subsequent System or all integrity impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.
Subsequent system availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the Subsequent System or all availability impact is constrained to the Vulnerable System.

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 30 May 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

Organizations using PHPGurukul Cyber Cafe Management System 1.0 should immediately audit their deployments for the presence of the vulnerable /bwdates-reports-details.php component. Since no official patches are currently available, administrators should implement the following mitigations: 1) Apply input validation and sanitization on 'fromdate' and 'todate' parameters, enforcing strict date format checks and rejecting any input containing SQL control characters. 2) Employ parameterized queries or prepared statements in the backend code to prevent SQL injection. 3) Restrict access to the vulnerable script via network controls or authentication mechanisms to limit exposure. 4) Monitor logs for unusual query patterns or repeated access attempts to the vulnerable endpoint. 5) Consider isolating the cyber cafe management system from critical internal networks to contain potential breaches. 6) Engage with the vendor or community for updates or patches and plan for timely application once available. 7) Educate staff on the risks and signs of exploitation attempts to enhance detection capabilities.

Description

A vulnerability was found in PHPGurukul/Campcodes Cyber Cafe Management System 1.0. It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file /bwdates-reports-details.php. The manipulation of the argument fromdate/todate leads to sql injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly small businesses operating cyber cafes or similar public internet access points, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to customer data, including usage logs and billing information, potentially violating GDPR requirements for data protection and privacy. Data tampering or deletion could disrupt business operations, leading to financial losses and reputational damage. Additionally, compromised systems could be leveraged as pivot points for broader network attacks if connected to larger organizational infrastructure. Given the niche nature of the software, larger enterprises are less likely to be directly impacted, but small businesses in the EU digital economy relying on this system are vulnerable. The public disclosure of the vulnerability increases the urgency for mitigation to prevent exploitation by opportunistic attackers.
