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: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files of the vulnerable system to carry out an attack.
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

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

Immediate mitigation should focus on restricting external access to the /changepassemp.php endpoint through network segmentation and firewall rules, limiting exposure to trusted internal networks only. Organizations should implement Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'ID' parameter. Regular database backups and monitoring for unusual query patterns or access attempts are recommended to detect and respond to exploitation attempts promptly. Additionally, organizations should review and tighten database user privileges to minimize the impact of a successful injection attack. Conducting a thorough security assessment of the entire employee management system and related infrastructure is advised to identify and remediate other potential vulnerabilities.

Description

A vulnerability was found in Campcodes Employee Management System 1.0. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown part of the file /changepassemp.php. The manipulation of the argument ID leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

Impact

For European organizations using Campcodes Employee Management System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a substantial risk to confidentiality, integrity, and availability of employee data. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive personal and financial information, violating GDPR and other data protection regulations, potentially resulting in heavy fines and reputational damage. Integrity of employee records could be compromised, affecting payroll, attendance, and HR processes. Availability might also be impacted if attackers execute destructive SQL commands or cause database corruption. The remote, unauthenticated nature of the exploit increases the likelihood of attacks, especially in organizations with internet-facing deployments of this system. Given the criticality of employee data and regulatory environment in Europe, this vulnerability could have severe operational and compliance consequences.

Summary

CVE-2025-6956 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the Campcodes Employee Management System, specifically within the /changepassemp.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'ID' parameter, which can be manipulated by an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands against the backend database without requiring any user interaction or privileges. The exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion, potentially compromising sensitive employee information stored within the system. Although the CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), the classification as critical in the description suggests that the impact could be severe depending on the deployment context. The vulnerability does not require authentication or user interaction, making it easier to exploit remotely. No official patches or mitigations have been disclosed yet, and while no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, the public disclosure increases the risk of exploitation by threat actors. Given the nature of employee management systems, the database likely contains personally identifiable information (PII), payroll data, and access credentials, making this vulnerability a significant risk for data breaches and insider threat escalation.
