CVE-2024-0477
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability has been found in code-projects Fighting Cock Information System 1.0 and classified as critical. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /admin/action/update-deworm.php. The manipulation of the argument usage_deworm leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. VDB-250582 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in Fighting Cock Information System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code via the usage_deworm parameter in /admin/action/update-deworm.php. The lack of input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or complete system compromise.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify the installed application and versionLocate the application files and check for version indicators such as a version.php file, README, or any file containing '1.0' as the version number. This may be in the root directory or within documentation files.Affected if The application is Fighting Cock Information System version 1.0
-
Verify the vulnerable file existsCheck if the file /admin/action/update-deworm.php exists in the web root directory. Navigate to the admin/action subdirectory and confirm the presence of update-deworm.php.Affected if The file /admin/action/update-deworm.php exists in the application directory
-
Inspect the usage_deworm parameter handlingOpen /admin/action/update-deworm.php in a text editor and examine how the usage_deworm parameter is handled. Look for direct insertion of this parameter into SQL queries without using prepared statements or parameterized queries.Affected if The code directly uses the usage_deworm POST or GET parameter in an SQL query without sanitization or prepared statements
-
Check if the application uses a databaseReview the application configuration files (such as config.php, db.php, or similar) to confirm database connectivity. The SQL injection requires an active database connection to be exploitable.Affected if The application is configured to use a database and the vulnerable query is executed against it
The environment is affected if Fighting Cock Information System version 1.0 is installed, the file /admin/action/update-deworm.php exists, and the usage_deworm parameter is processed in SQL queries without prepared statements or input sanitization.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedImplement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all database interactions, particularly for the usage_deworm parameter in update-deworm.php. Apply input validation and output encoding as defense-in-depth measures.
- 1. Isolate the affected system from the network to prevent remote exploitation of this critical SQL injection vulnerability.
- 2. Review the source code of /admin/action/update-deworm.php and locate the line(s) where the usage_deworm parameter is used in SQL queries.
- 3. Implement parameterized queries (prepared statements) instead of concatenating user input directly into SQL strings.
- 4. For example, if using mysqli, replace direct concatenation with mysqli_prepare() and bind parameters.
- 5. Apply input validation and sanitization on the usage_deworm parameter before using it in any database operations.
- 6. Apply least-privilege principles to the database user account used by the application - restrict it to only necessary operations.
- 7. After remediation, test the update-deworm functionality to ensure the fix works correctly and does not break legitimate usage.
- 8. Consider deploying a Web Application Firewall (WAF) as an additional layer of defense while code fixes are being implemented.
