SQL Injection vulnerability in Employee Management System v1.0 allows attackers to run arbitrary SQL commands via the admin_id parameter in update-admin.php.
Risk Analysis
The Employee Management System contains a critical SQL injection flaw that enables attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the admin_id parameter. Given the CVSS score of 9.8, this poses a severe risk to data integrity and confidentiality.
A proof-of-concept exploit has been published, though the vulnerability is not in the KEV catalog. It is remotely exploitable without authentication.
Administrators should apply patches provided by the vendor for version 1.0 or implement strict input validation on the admin_id parameter.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-28595 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.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2024-28595. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-89): SQL injection vulnerabilities allow attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially exposing or modifying sensitive data.
