Fixed in
1.1.2
A critical SQL Injection vulnerability has been identified in OpenGnsys, specifically affecting version 1.1.1d (Espeto). This flaw allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code, potentially bypassing authentication mechanisms and gaining access to sensitive data stored within the database. The vulnerability was published on April 12, 2024, and a fix is available in version 1.1.2.
The SQL Injection vulnerability in OpenGnsys poses a significant threat to data confidentiality and integrity. An attacker could exploit this flaw to bypass the login page, gaining unauthorized access to the system. Successful exploitation could lead to the extraction of all data stored in the database, including user credentials, configuration information, and potentially sensitive business data. The impact is particularly severe given the potential for complete data compromise. While no direct precedent is immediately obvious, SQL injection vulnerabilities are consistently among the most exploited flaws, often leading to data breaches and system takeover.
CVE-2024-3704 is currently not listed on the CISA KEV catalog. The EPSS score is likely to be medium to high, given the critical CVSS score and the potential for widespread exploitation of SQL injection vulnerabilities. Public proof-of-concept (PoC) code is not currently available, but the vulnerability's nature makes it likely that PoCs will emerge. The vulnerability was publicly disclosed on April 12, 2024.

The primary mitigation for CVE-2024-3704 is to upgrade OpenGnsys to version 1.1.2, which contains the fix for the SQL Injection vulnerability. If an immediate upgrade is not feasible due to compatibility issues or system downtime constraints, consider implementing temporary workarounds. These may include strict input validation on the login page to sanitize user-supplied data and limiting database user privileges to restrict the impact of a successful injection. Web application firewalls (WAFs) configured to detect and block SQL injection attempts can also provide a layer of protection. After upgrading, verify the fix by attempting a SQL injection attack on the login page – no database errors should be observed.
Update OpenGnsys to a version later than 1.1.1d that fixes the SQL Injection vulnerability. Consult the OpenGnsys website or the provided references for the security patch or updated version.
