How the Exploit Works
The SQL Injection vulnerability in mojoomla WPGYM stems from the improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command. It allows an attacker to inject malicious SQL commands into the system, which the database then executes. This is referred to as “Blind” SQL injection because the attacker does not need to use the error messages from the system to exploit the vulnerability. They can send malicious payloads and execute harmful actions without receiving any feedback.
Conceptual Example Code
An exploitative HTTP request might look something like this:
POST /vulnerable/endpoint HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "user_id": "1; DROP TABLE users; --" }In this example, the attacker is inserting a malicious SQL command (`DROP TABLE users`) into the `user_id` parameter of the HTTP request. This command would delete the `users` table from the database if executed, demonstrating the potential for significant damage.
Mitigation Guidance
The most recommended way to mitigate this vulnerability is by applying the vendor-supplied patch. If this is not immediately feasible, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can serve as temporary mitigation. However, these should only be considered stopgap measures until the patch can be applied, as they do not address the root cause of the vulnerability.
