Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-7167 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in code-projects Responsive Blog Site 1.0. The flaw affects unknown code in the /category.php file, where manipulation of the ID argument triggers the injection. Mapped to CWE-74 and CWE-89, 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 was published on 2025-07-08.
The vulnerability enables remote exploitation by attackers with low privileges. Requiring low complexity and no user interaction, it allows limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, such as partial data exposure, modification, or service disruption via injected SQL payloads.
Advisories referenced in VulDB entries (ctiid.315106, id.315106, submit.606487), a GitHub issue (yihaofuweng/cve/issues/8), and the vendor site (code-projects.org) document the issue, with the exploit publicly disclosed and potentially available for use.

Directly requires validation of the ID parameter in /category.php to reject malicious SQL syntax before query execution.
Limits the database account privileges used by the blog application so that successful injection yields only the observed limited C/I/A impact.
Enables monitoring of web-application and database logs for anomalous SQL patterns originating from category.php requests.
