Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-0541 is a SQL injection vulnerability affecting Codezips Gym Management System version 1.0. The flaw occurs in the processing of the file /dashboard/admin/edit_member.php, where manipulation of the "name" argument enables SQL injection. Published on 2025-01-17, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) and maps to CWE-74 and CWE-89. Other parameters may also be vulnerable.
An attacker with low privileges can exploit this remotely by injecting malicious SQL via the "name" parameter during member editing operations. Successful exploitation allows limited impacts: low confidentiality (e.g., partial data exposure), integrity (e.g., minor data alteration), and availability (e.g., minor service disruption) within the application's database.
References, including VulDB entries (ctiid.292433, id.292433, submit.480220) and a GitHub issue (nbeisss/CVE/issues/1), indicate the exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used. No patches or specific mitigation guidance are mentioned in the available details.
