CVE-2025-3330
Remediation/Mitigation Strategy: CVE-2025-3330
Vulnerability: SQL Injection
Description: A critical SQL injection vulnerability exists in codeprojects Online Restaurant Management System 1.0 within the /reservation_save.php file. The first parameter is vulnerable, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary SQL code. Other parameters might also be vulnerable.
Severity: Critical
- CVSS v3.1 Score: 9.8 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
- CVSS v2 Score: 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)
Known Exploit: A public exploit for this vulnerability exists and is actively being used.
Mitigation Strategy:
Input Validation & Sanitization:
- Immediate Action: Implement robust input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data, especially within
/reservation_save.php. Specifically, validate and sanitize thefirstparameter (and any other parameters potentially used within SQL queries) to prevent SQL injection attacks. Use parameterized queries (prepared statements) wherever possible, as this separates the SQL code from the data, preventing injection. - Implementation Details: Use a whitelist approach for validation. Only allow characters, formats, and lengths that are explicitly expected for the input fields. Escape any special characters that could be interpreted as SQL commands.
- Immediate Action: Implement robust input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied data, especially within
Parameterized Queries (Prepared Statements):
- Core Solution: Convert all SQL queries, especially those in
/reservation_save.php, to use parameterized queries (prepared statements). This is the most effective way to prevent SQL injection. The database server will handle the proper escaping of the input, preventing it from being interpreted as SQL code.
- Core Solution: Convert all SQL queries, especially those in
Least Privilege Principle:
- Database Access: Ensure that the database user account used by the application has the least amount of privileges necessary to perform its tasks. Avoid using a database account with administrator or root privileges.
Web Application Firewall (WAF):
- Immediate Defense: Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to detect and block malicious requests that exploit SQL injection vulnerabilities. Configure the WAF with rules specific to SQL injection attacks. Regularly update the WAF rules to stay ahead of new attack vectors.
Code Review:
- Long-Term Solution: Conduct a thorough code review of the entire application, especially all database interaction code, to identify and remediate any other potential SQL injection vulnerabilities. Use automated static analysis tools to assist in the code review process.
Update or Patch:
- Ideally: Check for official updates or patches from codeprojects for the Online Restaurant Management System 1.0. If a patch is available, apply it immediately.
Monitoring and Logging:
- Continuous Improvement: Implement comprehensive monitoring and logging of database activity and application errors. Monitor for suspicious patterns that may indicate an attempted or successful SQL injection attack. Analyze logs regularly to identify and address any security issues.
Consider Alternatives:
- If practical: If the application is outdated or unmaintained, consider migrating to a more secure and actively supported restaurant management system.
Timeline:
- Immediate (Within 24 hours): Implement Input Validation & Sanitization, deploy a WAF with SQL injection protection.
- Short-Term (Within 1 week): Convert all SQL queries to use parameterized queries (prepared statements).
- Mid-Term (Within 1 month): Conduct a thorough code review, apply the principle of least privilege for database access, and implement comprehensive monitoring and logging.
- Long-Term (Ongoing): Regularly update the WAF rules, monitor logs, and address any identified security issues. Evaluate alternative restaurant management systems if necessary.
