Description
Hongjing e-HR contains an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the getSdutyTree servlet endpoint that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to access protected resources by supplying a path traversal sequence in the request URI to bypass the oauthservlet authentication filter. Attackers can inject UNION-based SQL payloads through the unsanitized codeitemid parameter into the underlying Microsoft SQL Server query to retrieve sensitive database contents including user credentials. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-07-30 (UTC).

Impact

The vulnerability is an unauthenticated SQL injection in Hongjing e‑HR's getSdutyTree servlet. By supplying a path traversal sequence, attackers bypass the oauthservlet authentication filter and inject UNION‑based payloads into the codeitemid parameter. The unsanitized input allows the attacker to read sensitive data from the Microsoft SQL Server, including user credentials. This could lead to credential theft, account takeover, and broader system compromise if those credentials are used elsewhere.

Affected Systems

Hongjing Century’s e‑HR product is affected. No specific version information is provided; therefore any installation of the e‑HR suite that includes the getSdutyTree endpoint may be vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 8.7 the vulnerability is rated high severity. Exploitation can occur remotely without authentication, using a straightforward HTTP request. Although no EPSS score is available, the description shows that Shadowserver observed exploitation. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the lack of authentication makes it highly attractive to attackers. Successful exploitation grants read access to database contents, exposing credentials and sensitive business data.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update Hongjing e‑HR to the latest version that patches the unsanitized codeitemid parameter in getSdutyTree.
  • If an update is not available, restrict access to the getSdutyTree endpoint by implementing firewall or network segmentation rules that allow only trusted internal hosts.
  • Deploy a Web Application Firewall or craft input‑validation rules that block UNION-based SQL payloads and path traversal sequences targeting the codeitemid parameter.
