A SQL injection vulnerability exists in Control ID IDSecure 4.7.26.0 and prior, allowing unauthenticated attackers to write PHP files on the server's root directory, resulting in remote code execution.
Risk Analysis
This critical SQL injection vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to write arbitrary PHP files to the server root. Given the CVSS score of 9.8, this flaw poses an extreme risk as it enables remote code execution without requiring user interaction.
There is no known public exploit for this vulnerability, and it is not currently listed in CISA's KEV catalog. It is remotely exploitable due to its network-based vector and low attack complexity.
Users should update Control ID IDSecure to a version beyond 4.7.26.0 to remediate this vulnerability.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2023-33367 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-89): SQL injection vulnerabilities allow attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially exposing or modifying sensitive data.
