CVE-2025-60269: Huayi-tec Jeewms SQLi Vulnerability

CVE-2025-60269 Overview

A critical SQL Injection vulnerability has been identified in JEEWMS version 20250820, a warehouse management system developed by Huayi-tec. The vulnerability exists in the exportXls function located in the CgExportExcelController.java file within the src/main/java/org/jeecgframework/web/cgreport/controller/excel/ directory. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands against the underlying database without requiring authentication.

Critical Impact

Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this SQL Injection vulnerability remotely to extract sensitive data, modify database contents, or potentially compromise the entire database server.

Technical Details for CVE-2025-60269

Vulnerability Analysis

This SQL Injection vulnerability (CWE-89) affects the exportXls function in JEEWMS, a Java-based warehouse management system built on the JEECG framework. The vulnerable endpoint handles Excel export functionality and fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating it into SQL queries. Since the attack vector is network-accessible and requires no privileges or user interaction, the vulnerability can be exploited remotely by any attacker with network access to the application.

The impact of successful exploitation is severe, potentially allowing attackers to read, modify, or delete sensitive warehouse management data including inventory records, transaction logs, and user credentials stored in the database.

Root Cause

The root cause of this vulnerability is improper input validation in the exportXls function within CgExportExcelController.java. User-controlled input parameters are directly concatenated into SQL queries without proper sanitization, parameterization, or use of prepared statements. This classic SQL Injection pattern allows malicious SQL commands to be injected and executed by the database engine.

Attack Vector

The vulnerability is exploitable over the network through HTTP requests to the Excel export endpoint. An attacker can craft malicious requests containing SQL injection payloads in the parameters processed by the exportXls function. Since no authentication is required, any network-accessible attacker can exploit this vulnerability.

The attack flow involves sending specially crafted HTTP requests to the vulnerable endpoint, where injected SQL code is executed against the database. This can lead to unauthorized data access, data manipulation, or further system compromise depending on database permissions and configuration.

For technical details regarding this vulnerability, refer to the GitHub Issue Report documenting the SQL Injection in the exportXls function.

Detection Methods for CVE-2025-60269

Indicators of Compromise

• Unusual SQL error messages in application logs referencing the exportXls function or CgExportExcelController
• Abnormal database queries containing UNION SELECT, SLEEP(), BENCHMARK(), or other SQL injection patterns
• Unexpected data exports or access to the Excel export functionality from unknown IP addresses
• Database audit logs showing unauthorized SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE operations

Detection Strategies

• Deploy web application firewalls (WAF) with SQL injection detection rules targeting common injection patterns
• Implement application-level logging to capture all requests to the /cgreport/excel/ endpoint
• Enable database query logging and monitor for anomalous query patterns
• Use runtime application self-protection (RASP) solutions to detect and block SQL injection attempts

Monitoring Recommendations

• Configure alerts for SQL syntax errors originating from the JEEWMS application
• Monitor network traffic for unusually large data exports from the Excel export functionality
• Review database connection patterns for signs of data exfiltration attempts
• Implement anomaly detection for user behavior related to export functions

How to Mitigate CVE-2025-60269

Immediate Actions Required

• Restrict network access to the JEEWMS application to trusted IP addresses only
• Disable or block access to the exportXls endpoint until a patch is available
• Implement WAF rules to filter common SQL injection patterns targeting the vulnerable endpoint
• Review database privileges and implement least privilege principles for the application database account

Patch Information

At the time of publication, no official vendor patch has been released for this vulnerability. System administrators should monitor the JEEWMS Gitee Repository for security updates and patches.

Organizations should consider implementing the workarounds below and applying vendor patches as soon as they become available. Contact Huayi-tec for information regarding patch availability and remediation guidance.

Workarounds

• Deploy a web application firewall with SQL injection blocking capabilities in front of the JEEWMS application
• Implement network segmentation to limit exposure of the JEEWMS application to internal networks only
• Disable the Excel export functionality by removing or restricting access to the CgExportExcelController endpoint
• Apply database-level controls to limit the permissions of the JEEWMS database user account

To restrict access to the vulnerable endpoint at the web server level, consider implementing access controls in your web server or reverse proxy configuration to block external access to the export functionality until an official patch is available.
