CVE-2025-6308 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the PHPGurukul Emergency Ambulance Hiring Portal, specifically within the /admin/bwdates-request-report-details.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization and validation of the 'fromdate' and 'todate' input parameters, which are used in SQL queries. An attacker can remotely manipulate these parameters to inject malicious SQL code, potentially allowing unauthorized access to the backend database. This could lead to unauthorized data retrieval, modification, or deletion, depending on the database privileges associated with the web application. The vulnerability does not require user interaction but does require low-level privileges (PR:L) to exploit, indicating that some form of authentication or access to the admin interface is necessary. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 5.3, categorized as medium severity, reflecting limited confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts (VC:L, VI:L, VA:L) and no scope change. The attack vector is network-based (AV:N), with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction (UI:N). No known exploits are currently observed in the wild, but public disclosure of the exploit code increases the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability affects only version 1.0 of the product, which is a niche emergency ambulance hiring portal developed by PHPGurukul, likely used by healthcare or emergency service providers to manage ambulance requests and scheduling. The SQL injection could compromise sensitive data related to emergency requests, user information, and operational reports, potentially disrupting critical healthcare services or exposing personal data.

For European organizations, particularly those involved in healthcare, emergency services, or public safety that utilize the PHPGurukul Emergency Ambulance Hiring Portal, this vulnerability poses a significant risk. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive patient or operational data, undermining confidentiality and potentially violating GDPR regulations. Integrity of ambulance request data could be compromised, leading to incorrect dispatching or denial of service, which could have life-threatening consequences. Availability impact is medium but could disrupt emergency response workflows. Given the portal’s specialized use, the impact is concentrated but critical within affected organizations. Additionally, the exposure of sensitive health-related data could damage organizational reputation and lead to regulatory penalties. Although the vulnerability requires authenticated access, insider threats or compromised credentials could facilitate exploitation. The public availability of exploit details increases the urgency for mitigation in European healthcare environments where data protection and service continuity are paramount.

1. Immediate application of input validation and parameterized queries (prepared statements) in the /admin/bwdates-request-report-details.php file to sanitize 'fromdate' and 'todate' inputs, eliminating SQL injection vectors. 2. Restrict administrative interface access through network segmentation, VPNs, or IP whitelisting to limit exposure to trusted users only. 3. Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all administrative accounts to reduce risk from compromised credentials. 4. Conduct thorough code audits and penetration testing on all input handling in the portal, especially in admin modules. 5. Monitor database logs and web application logs for suspicious queries or access patterns indicative of SQL injection attempts. 6. If possible, upgrade to a patched version or apply vendor-provided fixes once available; if no patch exists, consider temporary disabling of vulnerable modules or restricting access until remediation. 7. Educate staff on secure credential management and monitor for insider threats. 8. Regularly back up critical data and test restoration procedures to mitigate potential data loss from exploitation.
