Description

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

Security Summary

CVE-2025-0233 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-89) in Codezips Project Management System 1.0. It affects an unknown part of the file /pages/forms/course.php, where manipulation of the course_name argument enables the injection.

The vulnerability is exploitable remotely over the network with low attack complexity, requiring no privileges or user interaction (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L, base score 7.3). Unauthenticated attackers can initiate the attack to achieve limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Advisories referenced in VulDB entries (ctiid.290229, id.290229, submit.474673) and a GitHub issue (1074923869/CVE/issues/1) document the issue, but no specific patches or mitigation steps are detailed in the available information.

The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used by attackers.

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 (/pages/forms/course.php) enables initial access via exploitation of public-facing applications (T1190), abuse of server software components (T1505 as noted in advisory), and collection of data from databases (T1213.006) through unauthorized DB access, leakage, and manipulation.
