Summary
CVE-2025-7199 is a medium-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Code-Projects Library System. Its CVSS base score is 5.5 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 42.5th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); 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 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and AC-3 (Access Enforcement).
Deeper analysis
CVE-2025-7199 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability affecting code-projects Library System 1.0. The flaw exists in the processing of the /notapprove.php file, where manipulation of the ID argument enables SQL injection. Published on 2025-07-08, it is associated with CWEs-74 and CWE-89, and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).
The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by unauthenticated attackers with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation allows limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability through SQL injection, potentially enabling data extraction, modification, or disruption within the affected Library System.
Advisories referenced in VulDB entries (ctiid.315137, id.315137, submit.607470) and a GitHub issue (github.com/Gemileo/CVE/issues/2) document the issue, along with the vendor site at code-projects.org. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used by attackers, though no specific patches or mitigations are detailed in available information.

Directly requires validation of all inputs (including the ID parameter to /notapprove.php) to reject malformed or malicious SQL syntax before it reaches the database.
Enforces that only explicitly authorized subjects may perform operations on the affected resource, limiting the ability of unauthenticated remote actors to submit arbitrary queries.
Requires timely remediation of known flaws such as this publicly disclosed SQL injection, removing the vulnerable code path in notapprove.php.
