Description

Adversaries may abuse legitimate extensible development features of servers to establish persistent access to systems.

Security Summary

CVE-2025-0168 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in code-projects Job Recruitment 1.0, affecting an unknown functionality within the file /_parse/_feedback_system.php. The issue arises from improper handling of the 'person' argument, classified under CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) and CWE-89 (SQL Injection). It carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) and was published on 2025-01-01.

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by an attacker with low privileges (PR:L), requiring network access and no user interaction. Successful manipulation of the 'person' argument enables SQL injection, potentially allowing limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:L/I:L/A:L), such as unauthorized data access, modification, or disruption depending on the database backend.

Advisories from VulDB (ctiid.289917, id.289917, submit.473107) document the issue, while a proof-of-concept exploit is publicly available on GitHub at github.com/UnrealdDei/cve/blob/main/sql11.md. No patches or specific mitigations are detailed in the provided references, and the developer site code-projects.org hosts the affected software. The exploit disclosure increases the risk of active exploitation.

MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise Techniques

T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
T1213.006 Databases Collection
Adversaries may leverage databases to mine valuable information.
T1505 Server Software Component Persistence
Adversaries may abuse legitimate extensible development features of servers to establish persistent access to systems.
Why these techniques?

SQL injection in public-facing web app enables initial access (T1190), data collection from databases via arbitrary queries (T1213.006), and execution via server software component as mapped by VulDB (T1505).
