CVE Informations

Related Weaknesses

CWE-ID Weakness Name Source
CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Bonsai Information Security - Advisory http://www.bonsai-sec.com/research/ SQL Injection in Achievo 1. *Advisory Information* Title: SQL Injection in Achievo Advisory ID: BONSAI-2009-0102 Advisory URL: http://www.bonsai-sec.com/research/vulnerabilities/achievo-sql-injection-0102.txt Date published: 2009-10-13 Vendors contacted: Achievo Release mode: Coordinated release 2. *Vulnerability Information* Class: SQL Injection Remotely Exploitable: Yes Locally Exploitable: Yes CVE Name: CVE-2009-2734 3. *Software Description* Achievo is a flexible web-based resource management tool for business environments. Achievo's resource management capabilities will enable organizations to support their business processes in a simple, but effective manner [0]. 4. *Vulnerability Description* SQL injection is a code injection technique that exploits a security vulnerability occurring in the database layer of an application. The vulnerability is present when user input is either incorrectly filtered for string literal escape characters embedded in SQL statements or user input is not strongly typed and thereby unexpectedly executed. For additional information, please look at the references [1] and [2]. 5. *Vulnerable packages* Version <= 1.3.4 6. *Non-vulnerable packages* Achievo developers informed us that all users should upgrade to the latest version of Achievo, which fixes this vulnerability. More information to be found here: http://www.achievo.org/ 7. *Credits* This vulnerability was discovered by Ryan Dewhurst ( ryan -at- bonsai-sec.com ). 8. *Technical Description* A SQL injection vulnerability was found in the dispatch.php script, more specifically in the $user_id variable. The vulnerability can be triggered by logging into Achievo and browsing to: /dispatch.php?atknodetype=reports.weekreport&atkaction=report&nameswitch=name&userid=%27&functionlevelswitch=all&startdate[day]=6&startdate[month]=7&startdate[year]=2009&enddate[day]=17&enddate[month]=7&enddate[year]=2009&showstatus=all&outputType=0&atkorderby=period Which will generate a syntax error in the database. The following is the corresponding piece of code: classweekreport.inc:128-134 function get_employee($user_id) { $db = &atkGetDb(); $sql = "SELECT * FROM person WHERE status='active' AND id='$user_id'"; $record = $db->getrows($sql); return $record[0]; } 9. *Report Timeline* - 2009-07-09: Vulnerabilities were identified. - 2009-08-08: Vendor contacted. - 2009-08-12: Vendor confirmed vulnerabilities. - 2009-08-14: Vendor sets possible release date of fixed version to Monday 12 Oct. - 2009-10-12: Vendor released fixed version. - 2009-10-13: The advisory BONSAI-2009-0101 is published. 10. *References* [0] http://www.achievo.org/ [1] http://www.owasp.org/index.php/SQL_injection [2] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection 11. *About Bonsai* Bonsai is a company involved in providing professional computer information security services.
