CVE-2025-5576 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.3 of the PHPGurukul Dairy Farm Shop Management System. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of user-supplied input parameters 'fromdate' and 'todate' in the /bwdate-report-details.php file. An attacker can remotely manipulate these parameters to inject malicious SQL code, potentially allowing unauthorized access to the backend database. This can lead to unauthorized data disclosure, data modification, or even complete compromise of the database server. The vulnerability does not require authentication or user interaction, making it exploitable by any remote attacker with network access to the affected application. Although the CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9, categorized as medium severity, the impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is significant due to the nature of SQL injection attacks. The vulnerability affects only version 1.3 of the product, and no official patches or mitigations have been published yet. No known exploits are currently observed in the wild, but public disclosure increases the risk of exploitation attempts. The PHPGurukul Dairy Farm Shop Management System is a niche product used primarily in agricultural retail environments to manage dairy farm shop operations, including sales and reporting. The vulnerability specifically targets the reporting functionality, which may contain sensitive business data such as sales records, customer information, and inventory details.

For European organizations using the PHPGurukul Dairy Farm Shop Management System, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized data access and potential data manipulation. Dairy farm shops and agricultural retailers relying on this system could face exposure of sensitive commercial data, leading to financial losses, reputational damage, and regulatory compliance issues under GDPR if personal data is compromised. The ability to execute SQL injection remotely without authentication increases the likelihood of exploitation by cybercriminals or competitors. Additionally, attackers could leverage this vulnerability to pivot into the internal network, escalate privileges, or disrupt business operations by corrupting or deleting critical data. Given the agricultural sector's importance in several European countries, such disruptions could have broader supply chain implications. However, the impact is somewhat limited by the product's niche usage and the absence of known active exploits at this time.

1. Immediate mitigation should include implementing input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the /bwdate-report-details.php script to prevent SQL injection. 2. Restrict network access to the affected application by using firewalls or VPNs to limit exposure to trusted users only. 3. Monitor web server and database logs for unusual query patterns or repeated access attempts to the vulnerable parameters. 4. If possible, disable or restrict the reporting functionality that uses the vulnerable parameters until a patch is available. 5. Engage with the vendor (PHPGurukul) to obtain or request a security patch or upgrade to a fixed version once released. 6. Conduct a thorough security audit of the application and surrounding infrastructure to identify and remediate other potential vulnerabilities. 7. Educate staff about the risks of SQL injection and ensure secure coding practices are followed in any customizations or integrations.
