sensitive database information.
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI
SI-10 mandates validation of the products_id parameter to block SQL injection payloads from manipulating database queries in product_info.php.
SI-2 requires identification and remediation of the SQL injection flaw in osCommerce 2.3.4.1 via patching or code correction.
SC-7 enables boundary protection such as web application firewalls to filter and block malicious SQL injection attempts targeting the products_id parameter.
Security SummaryAI
CVE-2019-25496 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in osCommerce 2.3.4.1. The flaw resides in the product_info.php script, where the products_id parameter fails to properly sanitize user input, enabling attackers to inject SQL code and manipulate database queries.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction required, as indicated by its CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N). By modifying the products_id value in requests to product_info.php and appending boolean-based SQL injection payloads, attackers can extract sensitive database information, achieving high confidentiality impact with low integrity impact.
