Applezeed is an online platform typically used by travel agencies and individuals to manage travel-related information and bookings. It is utilized worldwide for its user-friendly interface and seamless integration with travel data sources. The platform allows users to browse travel details and make bookings easily. This ease of use greatly contributes to its popularity among different demographic groups, especially those frequently traveling for business or leisure. However, like many web applications, Applezeed must be secured against various cyber threats to protect sensitive travel data. The scanner aims to identify vulnerabilities in the Applezeed application that cyber attackers may exploit.
The SQL Injection (SQLi) vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate a web application's database queries by injecting malicious SQL code. This access can compromise the application’s data integrity and expose sensitive information. SQL Injection is one of the most common web application vulnerabilities and can lead to unauthorized access to the application's database. Once an attacker exploits this vulnerability, they may access or alter sensitive user information stored in the database. It poses a significant risk to both application providers and their users, making detection and remediation crucial.
Technical details of this vulnerability in the Applezeed platform include exploiting the 'travel-details.php?id=' URL endpoint. The vulnerability resides in manipulating the 'id' parameter in database queries. By allowing injected SQL code, attackers can execute time-based SQL commands. In this instance, the vulnerability is confirmed when an injected command delays the SQL query response time, indicating the parameter's susceptibility to SQLi attacks. This technique allows attackers to infer database responses without directly accessing or modifying the database contents.
If exploited, this vulnerability can lead to several harmful effects, such as unauthorized data access, data manipulation, and potentially full administrative control over the application’s backend. Attackers can retrieve sensitive travel information, which might include personally identifiable information (PII) of users, travel itineraries, payment data, and more. Such exploitation could result in privacy breaches, financial losses, and reputational damage to Applezeed and its users.
