Deeper analysisAI
Jizhicms v2.5.4 contains a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in its product editing module, as identified by CVE-2025-50229. This flaw has 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 due to its potential for high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability affects the open-source Jizhicms content management system, specifically version 2.5.4.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access can exploit this SQL injection remotely with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data extraction, modification, or deletion within the application's database, as well as possible denial of service through database disruption.
