CVE Alert: CVE-2025-9930 – 1000projects – Beauty Parlour Management System

Risk verdict

High risk. Publicly disclosed, remote SQL injection with a PoC available; exploitation could proceed without authentication, warranting urgent attention.

Why this matters

The vulnerability targets a web-facing admin function, enabling an attacker to access or alter database content via the mobnumber parameter. In small-business deployments, this can lead to customer data exposure, credential leakage, or service disruption, potentially damaging trust and regulatory standing.

Most likely attack path

An attacker sends crafted input to /admin/contact-us.php without requiring credentials or user interaction (AV:N, PR:N, UI:N). With AC:L, database access could allow reading or modifying data and possibly moving within the affected scope. The lack of user interaction and network-based vector heightens the likelihood of automated probing and exploitation, though impact is partial (C/L I/L A/L) and scope remains unchanged.

Who is most exposed

Web deployments of the Beauty Parlour Management System with publicly reachable admin endpoints are most at risk—common on self-hosted or lightly protected hosting environments used by small salons and clinics.

Detection ideas

• SQL error messages or anomaly in responses from /admin/contact-us.php in logs.
• Spike in requests with unusual mobnumber values or SQLi-like payloads.
• WAF/IDS alerts for classic SQL injection patterns in query strings.
• Unusual database query latency or increased DB errors from the application host.

Mitigation and prioritisation

• Patch to vendor-released update immediately; if unavailable, apply input validation and parameterised queries (prepared statements) for all user-supplied data, especially mobnumber.
• Restrict access to the admin endpoint, add authentication, and deploy web app firewall rules targeting SQLi patterns.
• Audit and harden database permissions; disable unnecessary dynamic SQL.
• Change-management: test fixes in staging, then rollout across environments; monitor for anomalous access attempts.
• If KEV present or EPSS ≥ 0.5, treat as priority 1; otherwise classify as high-priority remediation.
