Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated low-privileged account (CVSS PR:L) and network access to the application's /module/leavetype/index.php endpoint; exploitation is performed by manipulating the ID argument to inject SQL. Limiting factors: valid credentials are needed (not unauthenticated), the target is the niche itsourcecode Leave Management System 1.0, and the CVSS 4.0 impacts are all rated Low. A public PoC exists, reducing the skill required, but there is no evidence of automated or widespread exploitation.

Impact

This is a low-real-priority issue despite the SQL injection classification. The input provides a CVSS 4.0 vector (CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) scoring only 2.1, with all three impacts rated Low and E:P indicating a proof-of-concept exploit maturity. The vector's PR:L confirms authentication is required (low-privileged), which meaningfully limits exposure. No EPSS score, no CISA KEV listing, and no confirmed active exploitation are present in the input - the only positive exploitation signal is that public exploit code exists (description: 'The exploit has been made available to the public'). Signals are broadly consistent: a network-reachable but authentication-gated SQLi in an obscure PHP application with a public PoC but no evidence of mass or targeted exploitation. The CWE is tagged CWE-74 (generic injection) whereas the actual weakness is SQL injection (properly CWE-89) - a labeling imprecision, not a scoring conflict. My independent view is that a classic ID-parameter SQL injection typically enables database contents disclosure, so the confidentiality impact may be understated by VulDB's Low rating; however, the trivial CRUD-app context and authentication requirement keep overall priority low. This is a real but low-severity, low-prevalence finding - patch during routine maintenance, not an emergency.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated low-privileged user of the itsourcecode Leave Management System sends a crafted value in the ID argument to /module/leavetype/index.php, injecting SQL into the backend query to read database records such as user or leave-type data. A public proof-of-concept exploit exists (referenced via VulDB), lowering the skill barrier, though exploitation requires valid low-privilege credentials (PR:L) and network access to the application.

Monitor Track and reassess. Why: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9).

AnalysisAIv1 – Sep 23, 2026

SQL injection in itsourcecode Leave Management System 1.0 via the ID argument in /module/leavetype/index.php allows an authenticated low-privileged remote attacker to manipulate database queries; the independent assessment rates confidentiality impact High and integrity/availability None under CVSS 3.1, while the CNA CVSS 4.0 score is 2.1. Publicly available exploit code exists, but there is no evidence of active exploitation or KEV listing, and exploitation requires valid credentials plus network access to the vulnerable endpoint. This is a low real-world-priority issue despite the SQL injection classification because the target is a niche application and the attack is not unauthenticated.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Because no fixed version is provided, apply compensating controls: require authentication and restrict access to /module/leavetype/index.php to trusted administrative users (side effect: lower-privileged staff who legitimately manage leave types lose access); if source code changes are possible, cast or validate the ID parameter as an integer and replace dynamic SQL with parameterized queries or prepared statements (side effect: non-numeric IDs would be rejected, potentially breaking unusual records); deploy WAF rules or virtual patching to detect SQL injection patterns in the ID parameter (side effect: overly broad rules can block benign requests); run the application database account with least privilege and read-only permissions where feasible (side effect: legitimate write operations may fail); and monitor for exploitation attempts using the publicly available PoC. Consult https://itsourcecode.com/ and https://vuldb.com/vuln/408524 for any future patch information.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The affected component is a PHP-based leave management web application, and the vulnerable endpoint /module/leavetype/index.php handles an ID argument that is passed into a SQL query without adequate neutralization. CWE-74 is the assigned root-cause class (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component, or injection), which in this case manifests as SQL injection. Both the CNA CVSS 4.0 vector and the independent CVSS 3.1 vector specify PR:L, so exploitation requires a low-privileged authenticated session rather than anonymous access; the network attack vector is AV:N, user interaction is UI:N, and the CVSS 4.0 vector includes E:P, which is consistent with the public proof-of-concept report. No CPE strings were provided, so the technology stack is identified from the product name, tags (PHP, SQLi), and the referenced VulDB entry rather than from CPE matching.
