CVE-2024-57031
Published: 17 January 2025
Summary
CVE-2024-57031 is a critical-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Wegia Wegia. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 30.1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; 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-2024-57031, published on 2025-01-17, is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) affecting WeGIA versions prior to 3.2.0. The issue is located in the /funcionario/remuneracao.php component, where the id_funcionario parameter fails to properly sanitize user input, allowing malicious SQL payloads to be injected into backend database queries.
The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating critical severity. A remote, unauthenticated attacker requires only network access and can exploit it with low complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation enables arbitrary SQL execution, potentially resulting in high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, such as unauthorized data access, modification, deletion, or denial of service against the database.
Advisories recommend upgrading to WeGIA 3.2.0 or later to mitigate the vulnerability.
