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

Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 14 Aug 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

Since no official patches or updates are indicated, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. First, restrict external access to the /admin/operations/expense_category.php endpoint using network-level controls such as firewalls or VPNs to limit exposure to trusted internal users only. Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules specifically designed to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'expense_name' parameter. Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data, especially parameters related to expense categories, to neutralize injection payloads. If possible, upgrade or migrate to a newer, patched version of the software or consider alternative solutions with better security track records. Regularly monitor logs for suspicious database query patterns or repeated failed attempts indicative of exploitation attempts. Employ database-level protections such as least privilege principles for the application database user to minimize the impact of a successful injection. Finally, prepare an incident response plan to quickly address any detected exploitation attempts and notify relevant data protection authorities if a breach occurs.

Description

A vulnerability has been found in itsourcecode Online Tour and Travel Management System 1.0. Affected is an unknown function of the file /admin/operations/expense_category.php. The manipulation of the argument expense_name 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, the impact of this SQL Injection vulnerability can be significant, especially for small to medium-sized travel agencies and tour operators relying on the itsourcecode Online Tour and Travel Management System version 1.0. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive financial data, customer personal information, and operational records, potentially resulting in data breaches that violate GDPR and other data protection regulations. Integrity compromise could allow attackers to alter financial records or booking details, causing operational disruptions and financial losses. Availability impacts could disrupt service continuity, affecting customer trust and business reputation. Given the travel industry's importance in Europe and the sensitivity of customer data handled, exploitation could also lead to regulatory fines and legal consequences. The remote and unauthenticated nature of the vulnerability increases the risk of widespread exploitation, especially if attackers automate scanning and exploitation attempts. Organizations using this system without timely remediation are at risk of targeted attacks or opportunistic exploitation by cybercriminals.
