CyberPower PowerPanel Enterprise is a software solution widely used by businesses and organizations to manage and monitor their power systems and UPS devices. This enterprise-grade application is designed to ensure efficient power management across various systems, providing essential analytics and reporting features. It enables IT administrators to ensure uninterrupted power supply, manage energy consumption, and optimize load hierarchies. PowerPanel Enterprise is typically deployed in various industrial, commercial, and even residential setups where monitoring power devices is critical. The platform is versatile, supporting a broad range of UPS devices and power systems for comprehensive power management. Its interface and reporting features allow for in-depth analysis and diagnostics, aiding in predictive maintenance and energy saving strategies.
The SQL Injection vulnerability identified in CyberPower PowerPanel Enterprise version 2.8.3 or lower potentially exposes sensitive database information to attackers. SQL Injection occurs when malicious actors input specially crafted SQL statements into input fields, manipulating database interactions and gaining unauthorized access to data. This vulnerability enables attackers to inject SQL commands that could bypass normal authentication, extract sensitive information, and in some contexts, alter or destroy data. The vulnerability arises due to insufficient validation of input in database query functions, allowing rogue SQL code execution. The "query_utask_verbose" function within the MCUDBHelper is specifically identified as vulnerable during this exploit. This security flaw, if unaddressed, can lead to significant data breaches or service disruptions.
The technical details involve exploiting an inadequately protected endpoint in the application's API. Specifically, the software fails to sanitize user input within the "/api/v1/confup" endpoint, allowing injection of arbitrary SQL commands. The injection point stems from the 'uid' parameter, which lacks input validation and sanitization. Through crafting a specific GET request that includes SQL commands such as "UNION" and database functions like "sqlite_version()", attackers can retrieve sensitive system and database information. The exploitation occurs when the application processes these malicious inputs, integrating them into backend SQL queries without filtering. Given the type of data accessible via this exploit, attackers can potentially enumerate database schema or extract critical information directly.
If successfully exploited, this SQL Injection vulnerability can have severe consequences, including unauthorized data exposure and possible database manipulation. Attacks may lead to leakage of sensitive organizational information, comprising user credentials, configuration data, or other critical datasets. It can also impact the integrity and availability of data, potentially resulting in corrupted data sets or unauthorized changes. Additionally, such vulnerabilities might allow attackers to perform further reconnaissance, leveraging disclosed information to enact more sophisticated attacks on the network. Compromised databases may serve as a stepping stone for attackers to infiltrate deeper into an organization’s IT infrastructure.
