CVE-2025-56401 identifies a SQL Injection vulnerability in ZIRA Group's WBRM 7.0 software, specifically within the referenceLookupsByTableNameAndColumnName function. SQL Injection (CWE-89) occurs when untrusted input is improperly sanitized, allowing attackers to manipulate backend SQL queries. In this case, the vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and requires only low privileges (PR:L), but no user interaction (UI:N). The vulnerability impacts confidentiality substantially (C:H), with limited integrity (I:L) and availability (A:L) effects. An attacker could extract sensitive database information or partially disrupt service. No patches or known exploits are currently available, but the vulnerability is publicly disclosed and rated with a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.6 (high). The lack of a patch necessitates immediate defensive measures. The vulnerability's presence in a core function that handles database lookups suggests it could affect many modules relying on dynamic SQL queries, increasing the attack surface. Given the critical role of WBRM in enterprise resource management, exploitation could lead to data leakage or partial service degradation.

For European organizations, exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive business data, including financial records, customer information, or internal operational details. The high confidentiality impact means data breaches are a primary concern, potentially resulting in regulatory penalties under GDPR and reputational damage. Partial integrity and availability impacts could disrupt business processes, causing operational delays. Organizations in sectors such as finance, manufacturing, and public administration that rely on WBRM for resource management are particularly vulnerable. The absence of known exploits reduces immediate risk but also means attackers may develop exploits rapidly once details are public. The vulnerability could be leveraged in targeted attacks or broader campaigns, especially against organizations with weak internal access controls or insufficient network segmentation.

Until an official patch is released, European organizations should implement the following mitigations: 1) Restrict database user privileges associated with WBRM to the minimum necessary, preventing unauthorized data access or modification. 2) Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL Injection patterns targeting the vulnerable function. 3) Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data, especially parameters related to referenceLookupsByTableNameAndColumnName. 4) Monitor logs for unusual database query patterns or errors indicative of injection attempts. 5) Segment networks to limit exposure of WBRM servers to only trusted internal systems. 6) Prepare for rapid patch deployment by establishing vendor communication channels and testing environments. 7) Perform code audits and penetration testing focused on SQL Injection vectors within WBRM modules. These steps will reduce attack surface and improve detection capabilities while awaiting vendor patches.
