CVE-2018-25422 spider312 CVE debrief

CVE-2018-25422 documents an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the MOGG web simulator Script. The flaw resides in the id parameter of play.php, where attacker-controlled input is incorporated directly into SQL queries without adequate sanitization or parameterization. Successful exploitation allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially extracting sensitive database contents such as usernames and other stored data. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in an SQL Command). The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network attack vector with low attack complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, high confidentiality impact, and low integrity impact. The vendor is currently identified as Unknown Vendor with low confidence based on reference domain analysis, and the entry requires review. No known exploitation in ransomware campaigns has been documented, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.

Who should care

Organizations running the MOGG web simulator Script; web application security teams; database administrators responsible for applications with direct SQL query construction from user input

Technical summary

The MOGG web simulator Script fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input to the id parameter in play.php. An unauthenticated remote attacker can submit crafted GET requests containing malicious SQL payloads through this parameter. The application passes this input directly into SQL queries without parameterization, enabling arbitrary SQL command execution. This allows attackers to read sensitive database information including usernames and other data. The vulnerability is exploitable over the network with low complexity and requires no authentication or user interaction.

Defensive priority

HIGH

Recommended defensive actions

  • Apply input validation and parameterized queries (prepared statements) to the id parameter in play.php to eliminate SQL injection vectors
  • Conduct code review of all database-interacting endpoints in the MOGG web simulator Script to identify and remediate similar injection flaws
  • Implement principle of least privilege for database accounts used by the application to limit impact of successful injection attacks
  • Deploy Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection payloads targeting play.php and similar endpoints
  • Monitor application and database logs for anomalous query patterns indicative of SQL injection exploitation attempts
  • Review and rotate any credentials or sensitive data that may have been exposed through this vulnerability if exploitation is suspected
