Exploitation-Technique:
=======================
Remote


Severity:
=========
Critical


Details:
========
A SQL Injection vulnerability is detected on the Chinese Ministry of Commerce website. 
Remote Attackers & low privileged user accounts can execute own sql commands via injection. Successful exploitation can 
result in dbms (Server) or application (Web) compromise.

Vulnerable Module(s):
                                                                [+] ssl_login.php

Vulnerable Para(s):             
                                                                [+] F_email , F_password


Proof of Concept:
=================
The SQL Injection vulnerabilities can be exploited by remote attackers (pre-auth) or local low privileged user accounts.
For demonstration or reproduce ...

[*] SQL Injection via POST METHOD

Site:           mofcom.gov.cn/ssl_login.php
Path:           /
File:           ssl_login.php
Para:           F_email & F_password

Solution:
=========
CLOSED BY COORDINATION OF CHINA NATIONAL VULNERABILITY DATABASE FOR INFORMATION SECURITY (CNNVD PARTNERS).
;)


Risk:
=====
The security risk of the pre-auth SQL injection vulnerability is estimated as critical.
