Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

The vulnerability identified as CVE-2025-28009 exposes a serious risk to the security of users and the integrity of systems running the Dietiqa App v1.0.20. This vulnerability is a type of SQL Injection that exists in the `u` parameter of the progress-body-weight.php endpoint. SQL Injection is a well-known web application vulnerability<\/a> that allows attackers to interfere with the queries that an application makes to its database, often with damaging consequences. Given the high severity of this vulnerability<\/a>, it’s critically important for users and administrators of the affected software to address this issue promptly.<\/p>\n

Vulnerability Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n

CVE ID: CVE-2025-28009
\nSeverity: Critical (9.8 CVSS v3)
\nAttack Vector: Network
\nPrivileges Required: None
\nUser Interaction: None
\nImpact: System compromise, Potential data leakage<\/a><\/p>\n

Affected Products<\/strong><\/p>\n

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

Dietiqa App | v1.0.20<\/p>\n

How the Exploit Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

The SQL Injection vulnerability in the Dietiqa<\/a> App occurs when user-supplied data is not correctly sanitized or parameterized. A user who can control the `u` parameter in the progress-body-weight.php endpoint can manipulate the SQL query executed by the server<\/a>. By doing so, the attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands on the database, potentially leading<\/a> to unauthorized access, data manipulation, or data leakage.<\/p>\n

Conceptual Example Code<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here’s a conceptual example of an HTTP request that could exploit this vulnerability<\/a>:<\/p>\n

POST \/progress-body-weight.php HTTP\/1.1\nHost: target.example.com\nContent-Type: application\/x-www-form-urlencoded\nu=' OR '1'='1'; --<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this example, the `u` parameter is manipulated in such a way to alter the SQL query. The `OR ‘1’=’1’` part always evaluates as true, effectively bypassing any authentication<\/a> check that might be part of the SQL query. The `–` part is a SQL comment, causing the rest of the original SQL statement to be ignored.<\/p>\n
Mitigation Guidance<\/strong><\/p>\n
The recommended mitigation strategy for CVE-2025-28009 is to apply the vendor patch, if available. If the patch is not available, using a web application firewall (WAF) or an intrusion detection system (IDS) can provide temporary mitigation. Additionally, it’s always advisable to implement secure coding practices, such as using parameterized queries or prepared statements, to prevent SQL Injection vulnerabilities<\/a> in the first place.
\nLastly, regular vulnerability scanning and penetration testing can help identify potential<\/a> security risks in your applications and infrastructure, allowing you to respond to them before they can be exploited.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
