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

The world of cybersecurity is rife with threats, and the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) system is instrumental in indexing these threats. This blog post focuses on a specific vulnerability, CVE-2025-60118, a significant security threat that affects Potenzaglobalsolutions PGS Core. This vulnerability is a classic SQL Injection<\/a> issue, a type of exploit that targets the database layer of an application, potentially resulting in system compromise or data leakage.
\nThis vulnerability is paramount due<\/a> to its potential for damage and the widespread use of the affected product, PGS Core, in various applications. With a CVSS Severity Score of 8.5, it underscores the urgent need for organizations using PGS Core to apply necessary patches or adopt appropriate mitigation strategies.<\/p>\n

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

CVE ID: CVE-2025-60118
\nSeverity: High (8.5)
\nAttack Vector: Network
\nPrivileges Required: Low
\nUser Interaction: None
\nImpact: System compromise or data<\/a> leakage<\/p>\n

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

Product | Affected Versions<\/p>\n

Potenzaglobalsolutions PGS Core | Up to version 5.9.0<\/p>\n

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

The exploit works by manipulating the SQL queries in the application. Specifically, an attacker can input malicious SQL statements into the application, which are then executed by the database. The application fails to adequately sanitize the user input, leading to an SQL injection vulnerability<\/a>. This could allow an attacker to manipulate the application’s SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized access<\/a> to data, data corruption, or even complete system compromise.<\/p>\n

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

Here is a conceptual example of how this vulnerability might be exploited. This example assumes that the attacker is trying to inject malicious SQL commands<\/a> via a web form:<\/p>\n

POST \/pgscore\/login HTTP\/1.1\nHost: vulnerablewebsite.com\nContent-Type: application\/x-www-form-urlencoded\nusername=admin'--&password=irrelevant<\/code><\/pre>\n
In this example, the username field includes a SQL comment (–). This effectively comments out the rest of the SQL query, allowing the attacker to bypass authentication<\/a>, assuming the application concatenates this input into a SQL query without proper sanitization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
