CVE-2025-7471 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the code-projects Modern Bag application. The vulnerability exists in the /admin/login-back.php file, specifically through the manipulation of the 'user-name' parameter. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject malicious SQL code into the backend database queries. The injection occurs because the input is not properly sanitized or parameterized before being incorporated into SQL statements. Exploiting this vulnerability could enable attackers to read, modify, or delete sensitive data stored in the database, potentially leading to unauthorized access to administrative functions or user data. The vulnerability has been publicly disclosed, but no known exploits have been observed in the wild yet. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9, indicating a medium severity level, with attack vector being network-based, no privileges or user interaction required, and low impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability individually, but combined impact is moderate. The vulnerability affects only version 1.0 of Modern Bag, and no patches or fixes have been published at the time of disclosure.

For European organizations using code-projects Modern Bag 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk, especially for those relying on the affected admin login functionality. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized database access, data leakage, or manipulation, compromising confidentiality and integrity of sensitive business or customer information. Given the remote and unauthenticated nature of the attack, threat actors could automate exploitation attempts, increasing the risk of widespread compromise. The impact is particularly critical for organizations handling personal data under GDPR, as data breaches could result in regulatory penalties and reputational damage. Additionally, if attackers gain administrative access, they could further pivot within the network, escalating the threat. Although no known exploits are currently active, the public disclosure increases the likelihood of future exploitation attempts.

Organizations should immediately audit their use of code-projects Modern Bag 1.0 and restrict access to the /admin/login-back.php endpoint through network-level controls such as IP whitelisting or VPN access. Input validation and parameterized queries must be implemented to sanitize the 'user-name' parameter, preventing SQL injection. If possible, upgrade to a patched or newer version once available from the vendor. In the interim, deploy Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection payloads targeting the vulnerable parameter. Conduct thorough logging and monitoring of admin login attempts to detect suspicious activity. Additionally, perform regular database integrity checks and backups to enable recovery in case of data tampering. Educate developers and administrators on secure coding practices to prevent similar vulnerabilities.
