CVE-2025-7593 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the code-projects Job Diary application, specifically within the /view-all.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'ID' parameter, which is directly used in SQL queries. This flaw allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to inject malicious SQL code by manipulating the 'ID' argument, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, data modification, or even full compromise of the underlying database. The vulnerability does not require any authentication or user interaction, making it highly exploitable over the network. Although the CVSS v4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), the lack of authentication and remote exploitability elevate the risk. The vulnerability affects only version 1.0 of the Job Diary product, and no official patches or mitigations have been published yet. There is no public evidence of active exploitation in the wild, but the exploit details have been disclosed publicly, increasing the likelihood of future attacks. The impact scope includes confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the database and potentially the entire application environment depending on the database privileges. The vulnerability is straightforward to exploit due to low attack complexity and no required privileges or user interaction.

For European organizations using code-projects Job Diary 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of their data. Attackers could extract sensitive business information, manipulate records, or disrupt operations by corrupting or deleting data. Given the remote and unauthenticated nature of the exploit, attackers can launch attacks at scale, potentially leading to data breaches or service outages. Organizations in sectors handling sensitive or regulated data (e.g., finance, healthcare, government) are particularly at risk, as exploitation could lead to compliance violations under GDPR and other data protection laws. The lack of patches means organizations must rely on immediate mitigations to prevent exploitation. The public disclosure of the exploit increases the urgency for European entities to assess their exposure and implement safeguards. Additionally, if the Job Diary application integrates with other internal systems, the compromise could cascade, amplifying the impact.

1. Immediate mitigation should include restricting access to the /view-all.php endpoint via network controls such as firewalls or web application firewalls (WAFs) to limit exposure to trusted IP addresses only. 2. Employ WAF rules specifically designed to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'ID' parameter. 3. If possible, disable or remove the vulnerable functionality until a patch is available. 4. Conduct a thorough code review and implement parameterized queries or prepared statements to sanitize all user inputs, especially the 'ID' parameter. 5. Monitor application logs and database logs for unusual query patterns or access attempts targeting the vulnerable endpoint. 6. Plan and prioritize upgrading to a patched version once released by the vendor or consider alternative software solutions if no patch is forthcoming. 7. Educate development teams on secure coding practices to prevent similar vulnerabilities in future releases. 8. Regularly back up databases and ensure backups are stored securely to enable recovery in case of data tampering or loss.
