CVE-2006-0897

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

SQL injection vulnerability in VCS Virtual Program Management Intranet (VPMi) Enterprise 3.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the UpdateID0 parameter to Service_Requests.asp. The vendor disputes the issue, claiming a complex state management system with JavaScript and server-side session state protects against SQL injection, and that errors may be due to invalid field values rather than actual injection.

Risk Assessment

If the vulnerability is real, an attacker could gain unauthorized database access, steal or modify sensitive organizational data. The vendor's dispute introduces uncertainty about the actual risk.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade to the latest VPMi version or apply temporary mitigations such as input validation and sanitization of the UpdateID0 parameter. If vendor support is unavailable, consider migrating to an alternative solution.

Original NVD description (English source)

SQL injection vulnerability in VCS Virtual Program Management Intranet (VPMi) Enterprise 3.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the UpdateID0 parameter to Service_Requests.asp. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, saying that "[we] have a behind the scenes complex state management system that uses a combination of keys placed in JavaScript and Session State (server side) that protects against the type of SQL injection you describe. We have tested for many of the cases and have not found it to be an issue." Further investigation suggests that the original researcher might have triggered errors using invalid field values, which is not proof of SQL injection; however, the vendor did not receive a response from the original researcher
