How the Exploit Works
The SQL Injection vulnerability in the Highwarden Super Store Finder arises from the improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate SQL queries in the back-end database, thereby enabling the execution of arbitrary SQL commands. With this, an attacker can potentially compromise the system or leak sensitive data from the database.
Conceptual Example Code
Illustratively, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability through a maliciously crafted HTTP request like the following:
POST /search/store HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "store_name": "'; DROP TABLE users; --" }
Here, the attacker is injecting a malicious SQL command (`’; DROP TABLE users; –`) in the `store_name` parameter. This command is intended to drop (delete) the `users` table from the database, which could cause significant disruption and data loss.
Mitigation Guidance
To mitigate this vulnerability, users of Highwarden Super Store Finder are urged to apply the vendor-provided patch. In the absence of an immediate patch, users can employ Web Application Firewalls (WAF) or Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) as temporary measures. These systems can help detect and block attempts to exploit the vulnerability. However, these are not long-term solutions, and users are highly encouraged to apply the vendor patch as soon as it is available.
