OpenSIS Community Edition versions 8.0 through 9.1 contain an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability identified as CVE-2024-35584. The application fails to sanitize the 'X-Forwarded-For' HTTP header before using it in SQL queries within multiple files, including Ajax.php, Modules.php, ForExport.php, ForWindow.php, and functions/HackingLogFnc.php. An authenticated attacker can exploit this to achieve unauthorized database access, modification, or deletion.

Impact

Successful exploitation allows an authenticated user to perform blind SQL injection, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, integrity compromise, or availability disruption. The CVSS 3.1 score for this vulnerability is 8.8 (High).

Recommendation

  • Audit web server logs for suspicious 'X-Forwarded-For' header values containing SQL keywords or characters such as single quotes, semicolons, or 'SLEEP' functions.
  • Implement parameterized queries in the identified PHP files (Ajax.php, Modules.php, ForExport.php, ForWindow.php, functions/HackingLogFnc.php) to prevent future injection.
  • Apply strict input validation on all HTTP headers used for logging or application logic.
  • Ensure all OpenSIS instances are updated to the latest available version if a patch is released to mitigate the identified vulnerability.

Immediate actions

Inventory all OpenSIS Community Edition instances to identify versions 8.0-9.1.
