The vulnerability CVE-2025-14212 is an unauthenticated SQL Injection flaw within the Advanced Library Management System version 1.0. It originates from the `/member_search.php` script, which fails to properly sanitize or parameterize user-supplied input in the `roll_number` parameter. Because the system concatenates this input directly into a backend SQL query without validation, an attacker can inject malicious SQL code by manipulating the value of `roll_number` in an HTTP request. This attack can be performed remotely without any prior authentication. The exploit allows for the execution of arbitrary SQL commands on the underlying database, which can lead to data theft (extraction of member records, admin credentials), data manipulation (altering or deleting library data), and potentially a full compromise of the database server depending on its configuration and permissions. The availability of a published exploit increases the risk of active attacks against unpatched systems.
Platform: Advanced Library Management System
Version: 1.0
Vulnerability: SQL Injection
Severity: Medium
date: 12/07/2025
Prediction: Not Specified
What Undercode Say:
curl -s "http://target.site/member_search.php?roll_number=1'%20OR%20'1'%3D'1"
roll_number=1' UNION SELECT 1,version(),3-- -
!/bin/bash Basic vulnerability check TARGET="$1" TEST_PAYLOAD="1'%20OR%20'1'%3D'1" curl -s "$TARGET/member_search.php?roll_number=$TEST_PAYLOAD" | grep -i "error|sql|mysql"
Exploit:
An attacker exploits this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP GET request to the vulnerable `/member_search.php` endpoint. They append a malicious SQL payload to the `roll_number` parameter. For example, submitting `1′ OR ‘1’=’1` would manipulate the query’s WHERE clause to always be true, potentially returning all member records. More advanced attacks use UNION SELECT statements to extract database schema information, user credentials, or other sensitive data directly within the application’s response.
Protection from this CVE:
Apply vendor patch if available.
Use prepared statements/parameterized queries.
Implement strict input validation.
Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF).
Impact:
Unauthorized data access
Data manipulation or deletion
