Threat metrics

Exploit Maturity: POC

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: High: The attacker requires privileges that provide significant (e.g., administrative) control over the vulnerable system allowing full access to the vulnerable system’s settings and files.
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.
Exploit Maturity: POC: Based on threat intelligence sources each of the following must apply: · Proof-of-concept is publicly available · No knowledge of reported attempts to exploit this vulnerability · No knowledge of publicly available solutions used to simplify attempts to exploit the vulnerability

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 29 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 2026-10-25.

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 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

European organizations should immediately audit their use of SourceCodester Simple Company Website 1.0 and identify any instances of the vulnerable software. Since no official patches are currently available, organizations should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Restrict access to the /admin/clients/manage.php endpoint by IP whitelisting or VPN-only access to limit exposure. 2) Enforce strong authentication and role-based access controls to ensure only trusted administrators have access to the vulnerable functionality. 3) Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'ID' parameter. 4) Conduct code reviews and apply manual input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the affected code if source code access is available. 5) Monitor logs for suspicious activity related to the 'ID' parameter or unusual database errors. 6) Plan for an upgrade or migration to a patched or alternative solution as soon as a fix is released. 7) Educate administrators on the risks and signs of exploitation attempts. These targeted actions go beyond generic advice by focusing on access restriction, input validation, and monitoring specific to the vulnerable component and parameter.

Description

A vulnerability was found in SourceCodester Simple Company Website 1.0. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown function of the file /admin/clients/manage.php. The manipulation of the argument ID leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Impact

For European organizations using SourceCodester Simple Company Website 1.0, this vulnerability poses a risk of unauthorized access to sensitive client and company data stored in the backend database. Exploitation could lead to data breaches involving personal data, which would have serious implications under the GDPR regulations, including heavy fines and reputational damage. The ability to manipulate database queries could also allow attackers to alter or delete critical business data, disrupting business operations and potentially causing financial losses. Since the vulnerability is located in an administrative interface, organizations with weak access controls or exposed admin panels are at higher risk. The medium severity rating suggests that while the impact is significant, it may be limited by the requirement for high privileges, which could reduce the attack surface if proper authentication and authorization controls are in place. However, the public disclosure of the exploit increases the urgency for European organizations to assess and mitigate this risk promptly.
