Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-10970 is an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability that enables Blind SQL Injection in Kolay Software Inc.'s Talentics software. This flaw affects Talentics versions through 20022026 and is classified under CWE-89. Published on 2026-02-20, it 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), marking it as critical due to its high potential impact.

The vulnerability can be exploited by unauthenticated attackers over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation allows high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, enabling attackers to extract sensitive data, modify database contents, or disrupt services through blind SQL injection payloads that infer information via true/false responses.

A related advisory is available from USOM at https://www.usom.gov.tr/bildirim/tr-26-0081. The vendor was contacted early regarding this disclosure but provided no response, and no patches or specific mitigations are detailed in available information.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match
prevent

Directly requires validation and sanitization of untrusted inputs to block SQL metacharacters that enable blind SQL injection in Talentics.

AC-6 Least Privilege partial match
prevent

Limits database account privileges so that even a successful blind SQLi payload cannot arbitrarily read, modify, or delete data.

SI-4 System Monitoring partial match
detect

Enables monitoring of database query patterns and anomalies that would reveal ongoing blind SQL injection attempts against the application.
