Summary

CVE-2019-25504 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 8.8 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 14.5th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 RA-5 (Vulnerability Monitoring and Scanning) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2019-25504 is an SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in NCrypted Jobgator, 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). The flaw resides in the handling of the "experience" parameter, which allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code into database queries via POST requests to the /agents Find-Jobs endpoint.

Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation enables manipulation of database queries to extract sensitive information from the database, achieving high confidentiality impact with low integrity impact and no availability impact.

Advisories and proof-of-concept exploits are documented in references including the Exploit-DB entry at https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/46663 and the VulnCheck advisory at https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/ncrypted-jobgator-lastest-sql-injection-via-agents-find-jobs. These resources detail the attack vectors but do not specify patches or vendor-provided mitigations in the available information.

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.
T1213.006 Databases Collection
Adversaries may leverage databases to mine valuable information.
Why these techniques?

SQL injection in public-facing web application enables T1190 (Exploit Public-Facing Application) for initial access and facilitates T1213.006 (Data from Information Repositories: Databases) for extracting sensitive data via manipulated database queries.
