How the Exploit Works

An attacker, leveraging this vulnerability, can send a maliciously crafted HTTP POST request to /osms/Requester/Requesterchangepass.php. The rPassword parameter in the request is susceptible to SQL injection, which means that an attacker can embed SQL commands into the request. When the server processes the request, it executes the embedded SQL commands, which could potentially lead to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or even system compromise.

Conceptual Example Code

Here is a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited. This is an HTTP POST request that contains a payload which exploits the SQL injection vulnerability.

POST /osms/Requester/Requesterchangepass.php HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
rPassword=example'; DROP TABLE Users; --

In this example, the string following the password input is a SQL command (`DROP TABLE Users; –`) that would delete the Users table from the database if executed.

Mitigation Guidance

The most effective way to mitigate this vulnerability is by applying the patch provided by the vendor. If a patch is not immediately available or cannot be applied promptly, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can offer temporary protection by blocking SQL injection attacks. Additionally, it is recommended to follow secure coding practices and perform regular code audits to prevent such vulnerabilities from being present in your applications.
