CVE-2025-67928: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in themesuite Automotive Listings
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in themesuite Automotive Listings automotive allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects Automotive Listings: from n/a through <= 18.6.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-67928 is a Blind SQL Injection vulnerability identified in the themesuite Automotive Listings software, affecting versions up to and including 18.6. The root cause is improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands, which allows an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL code into database queries. Blind SQL Injection means the attacker cannot directly see the database output but can infer information through side effects such as response timing or error messages. This type of injection can be exploited to extract sensitive data, modify or delete records, or cause denial of service by disrupting database operations. The vulnerability does not require prior authentication, increasing its risk profile. Although no public exploits have been reported yet, the nature of SQL injection vulnerabilities makes them attractive targets for attackers. The lack of a CVSS score indicates that the vulnerability is newly published and pending further assessment. The affected product, themesuite Automotive Listings, is used in automotive marketplace platforms, which often handle sensitive customer and vehicle data. The vulnerability's exploitation could compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected systems. The absence of patches at the time of publication necessitates immediate mitigation through input sanitization and monitoring.
Potential Impact
For European organizations, especially those operating automotive marketplaces or classified listing platforms using themesuite Automotive Listings, this vulnerability could lead to significant data breaches involving customer personal information, vehicle details, and transaction records. The integrity of listings could be compromised, allowing attackers to manipulate or falsify automotive data, undermining user trust and business reputation. Availability impacts could arise if attackers execute denial-of-service attacks by exploiting the database. Regulatory compliance risks are also elevated, as unauthorized data exposure could violate GDPR and other data protection laws, leading to legal and financial penalties. The automotive sector is critical in Europe, with countries like Germany, France, and Italy hosting major automotive manufacturers and digital marketplaces, making them prime targets. Additionally, attackers could leverage this vulnerability as a foothold for further network intrusion or lateral movement within affected organizations.
Mitigation Recommendations
Organizations should immediately audit their use of themesuite Automotive Listings and identify affected versions. Until official patches are released, implement strict input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data fields interacting with the database. Employ parameterized queries or prepared statements if customization of the software is possible. Deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) configured to detect and block SQL injection patterns, including blind injection techniques. Monitor database logs and application behavior for anomalies such as unusual query patterns or timing discrepancies indicative of blind SQL injection attempts. Conduct regular vulnerability scans and penetration tests targeting SQL injection vectors. Prepare incident response plans specific to database compromise scenarios. Engage with the vendor for timely patch releases and apply updates promptly once available. Consider isolating the affected application components to limit potential lateral movement in case of exploitation.
