CVE-2025-3011
Remediation/Mitigation Strategy for CVE-2025-3011
Vulnerability Description: SQL Injection vulnerability in SOOP-CLM from PiExtract. Unauthenticated remote attackers can inject arbitrary SQL commands.
Severity: Critical (CVSS Score: 9.8)
Known Exploit: Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability to read, modify, and delete database contents.
Remediation/Mitigation:
Immediate Action (Critical):
- Input Validation: Implement strict input validation on all user-supplied data that is used in SQL queries. This includes validating data type, length, format, and allowed characters. Use parameterized queries or prepared statements wherever possible to separate SQL code from user input.
- Web Application Firewall (WAF): Deploy or configure a WAF to detect and block SQL injection attempts. Regularly update the WAF ruleset to include protection against known and emerging SQL injection techniques.
- Disable Public Access (Temporary): If immediate patching is not possible, consider temporarily disabling public access to the SOOP-CLM application to prevent exploitation until a fix can be implemented.
Long-Term Solution (High Priority):
- Patching/Updating: Immediately apply the security patch released by PiExtract for SOOP-CLM to address this vulnerability. If a patch is not yet available, contact PiExtract for a timeline and workaround.
- Code Review: Conduct a thorough code review of SOOP-CLM, focusing on SQL query construction and data handling, to identify and fix any other potential SQL injection vulnerabilities. Use static analysis tools to automate vulnerability detection.
- Least Privilege: Configure database user accounts with the least privileges necessary to perform their required tasks. Avoid using a single, highly privileged account for all database operations.
- Error Handling: Implement proper error handling to prevent sensitive database information from being exposed in error messages.
- Regular Security Audits: Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing of SOOP-CLM and its environment to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
Monitoring & Logging:
- Enable detailed logging: Enable detailed logging of all database queries and application activity to facilitate the detection and investigation of suspicious activity.
- Monitor for SQL Injection Attempts: Monitor logs for SQL injection attempts and unusual database activity. Implement alerting mechanisms to notify security personnel of potential attacks.
Vendor Communication:
- Contact PiExtract: If not already done, contact PiExtract to confirm the vulnerability and request a patch or workaround. Establish a communication channel for future security updates.
