CVE Alert: CVE-2025-9507 – itsourcecode – Apartment Management System

Risk verdict

High risk to internet-facing deployments due to remote, unauthenticated SQL injection with a publicly available exploit; exploitation could occur without user interaction.

Why this matters

The flaw allows an attacker to manipulate a query parameter over the network, potentially exposing or corrupting database content and impacting resident and operational data. Realistic attacker goals include data exfiltration, tampering with records, or denial of service to the affected module.

Most likely attack path

The vulnerability is a network-accessible SQL injection (AV:N, AC:L, PR:N, UI:N, S:U). No privileges or user interaction are required, increasing the likelihood of automated exploitation. Attackers can directly target the database via the visitor_info.php endpoint, potentially leading to confidential data disclosure, data integrity loss, and possible information leakage across the app’s scope.

Who is most exposed

Web deployments of itsourcecode’s Apartment Management System, especially older on-prem or externally accessible instances handling visitor data or reporting, are at greatest risk. Environments with public-facing PHP modules are typical exposure points.

Detection ideas

• Logs show unusual query strings targeting vid parameter (unexpected characters or tautologies).
• Web/app errors or database error messages surfaced in logs or responses.
• Spike in slow/failed queries related to the visitor_info endpoint.
• IDS/IPS signatures for common SQLi payloads (UNION-based, tautologies, piggybacked queries).
• Anomalous access patterns from unauthenticated sources hitting the endpoint.

Mitigation and prioritisation

• Apply vendor patch or upgrade to fixed release; verify hotfix availability with the vendor.
• If patching is delayed, implement parameterised queries and input validation on vid; disable dynamic query construction.
• Enforce Web Application Firewall rules to block SQLi patterns and tighten network access to the app.
• Principle of least privilege for DB accounts used by the app; restrict schema access.
• Change-management: test remediation in staging, then deploy within 2–4 weeks; enable enhanced logging and DB query monitoring. If immediate patching isn’t feasible, implement compensating controls and continuous monitoring.
