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: Low: The attacker requires privileges that provide basic capabilities that are typically limited to settings and resources owned by a single low-privileged user. Alternatively, an attacker with Low privileges has the ability to access only non-sensitive resources.
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 4 Jun 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

Given the absence of an official patch, European organizations should immediately implement compensating controls. These include restricting network access to the affected application, ensuring it is not exposed to the public internet or untrusted networks. Deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'teamid' parameter. Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data, especially parameters used in SQL queries, ideally using parameterized queries or prepared statements if source code access is available. Monitor application logs for suspicious query patterns or repeated failed attempts to manipulate 'teamid'. If possible, isolate the database with strict access controls and monitor for anomalous queries. Organizations should also prepare incident response plans specific to this vulnerability, including data backups and recovery procedures. Engage with the vendor or community for updates or patches and plan for timely application once available. Finally, conduct security awareness training for administrators managing the system to recognize potential exploitation signs.

Description

A vulnerability classified as critical was found in PHPGurukul Online Fire Reporting System 1.2. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /admin/edit-team.php. The manipulation of the argument teamid leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Impact

For European organizations, particularly local government agencies, fire departments, or emergency response units using the PHPGurukul Online Fire Reporting System version 1.2, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized access to sensitive incident data and operational information. Exploitation could lead to data leakage of fire incident reports, alteration of team assignments, or disruption of reporting workflows, potentially delaying emergency response or compromising public safety. Although the CVSS score indicates medium severity, the critical nature of emergency services data means even partial data integrity or availability loss could have serious real-world consequences. Additionally, unauthorized database access could expose personal data of citizens or emergency personnel, implicating GDPR compliance risks. The remote and unauthenticated nature of the exploit increases the likelihood of opportunistic attacks, especially if the system is internet-facing or accessible via weakly secured networks. European organizations relying on this software should consider the operational impact on emergency services continuity and data protection obligations.
