CVE-2021-40353

Status: ModifiedCritical (9.8)—💥 PoC

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in version 8.0 of openSIS when MySQL or MariaDB is used as the application database. An attacker can then issue the SQL command through the index.php USERNAME parameter. NOTE: this issue may exist because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-6637.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.

⚠️ GitHub proofs of concept are not verified: some are fake or contain malware. Never run them outside an isolated lab.
