Threat & Defense at a Glance

What attackers do: exploitation maps to Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190) and 1 other technique. What defenders deploy: see the NIST 800-53 controls recommended below.

Threat & Defense Details

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

prevent

Directly prevents SQL injection by requiring validation and sanitization of user inputs like search, pageid, and id parameters before incorporation into SQL queries.

SI-2 Flaw Remediation good match

preventrecover

Mandates identification, reporting, and correction of coding flaws such as the SQL injection vulnerabilities in search.php, page.php, and posts.php.

RA-5 Vulnerability Monitoring and Scanning good match

detect

Enables vulnerability scanning to identify SQL injection flaws in web applications like OOP CMS BLOG, allowing remediation before exploitation.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access

Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.

Why these techniques?

SQL injection in public-facing CMS enables unauthenticated remote exploitation of web application (T1190) to execute arbitrary SQL queries and collect data from databases (T1213.006).

Confidence: HIGH · MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise v19.0

NVD Description

OOP CMS BLOG 1.0 contains SQL injection vulnerabilities that allow unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries by injecting malicious code through multiple parameters. Attackers can inject SQL commands via the search parameter in search.php, pageid parameter in page.php, and…

id parameter in posts.php to extract database information including table names, schema names, and database credentials.

Deeper analysisAI

CVE-2018-25199 is a SQL injection vulnerability affecting OOP CMS BLOG version 1.0. The flaw exists in multiple parameters across PHP files, including the search parameter in search.php, pageid parameter in page.php, and id parameter in posts.php. These allow attackers to inject malicious SQL code, enabling execution of arbitrary SQL queries. The vulnerability is rated with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N) and is associated with CWE-89.

Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity and no privileges required. By injecting SQL commands through the vulnerable parameters, attackers can extract sensitive database information, such as table names, schema names, and database credentials.

Advisories and a proof-of-concept exploit are documented in references including Exploit-DB (exploit 45799) and Vulncheck, which detail the SQL injection via the search parameter and other vectors. No specific patch or mitigation details are outlined in the provided CVE information.
