CVE-2018-25428: Paroiciel 11.20 SQL Injection via tRecIdListe Parameter
Paroiciel 11.20 contains an SQL injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries by injecting malicious code through the tRecIdListe parameter. Attackers can send GET requests to the trec.php endpoint with crafted SQL payloads to extract database information including table and column names.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
Paroiciel 11.20 has an unauthenticated SQL injection flaw in a web endpoint parameter. A remote attacker could query the application database and expose sensitive stored information. The sources name only version 11.20 and do not identify a vendor patch or compensating control.
Executive priority
Prioritize remediation for any internet-facing or partner-facing Paroiciel 11.20 deployment. The main business risk is unauthorized database disclosure from an unauthenticated web request path.
Technical view
CVE-2018-25428 is CWE-89 SQL injection in the tRecIdListe parameter of trec.php. The CVSS 4.0 score is 8.8, with network access, low complexity, no privileges, no user interaction, high confidentiality impact, and low integrity impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is most likely where Paroiciel 11.20 is deployed and reachable over a network, especially if trec.php is accessible to unauthenticated users. The bundle does not prove other versions are affected.
Exploitation context
A public ExploitDB reference exists, but the CVE bundle says KEV is false and provides no cited evidence of active exploitation. Treat it as publicly documented and readily testable, not confirmed exploited in the wild.
Researcher notes
The source data supports Paroiciel 11.20, trec.php, tRecIdListe, CWE-89, CVSS 8.8, and public exploit availability. It does not establish active exploitation, affected version breadth, patch availability, or vendor-confirmed remediation.
Mitigation direction
Identify and prioritize all Paroiciel 11.20 installations.
Check Paroiciel vendor guidance for patches, upgrades, or official mitigations.
Restrict unauthenticated network access to Paroiciel endpoints where operationally possible.
If no supported fix exists, isolate or retire exposed Paroiciel 11.20 systems.
Review database and application logs for suspicious access patterns.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether Paroiciel 11.20 is installed in the environment.
Verify whether trec.php is reachable from untrusted networks.
Review web logs for requests involving the tRecIdListe parameter.
Check vendor or advisory sources for any newer remediation guidance.
Validate that access restrictions do not break required business workflows.

CWE-89: Database access and collection lookup
Injection into data stores can inform collection, data access, and exfiltration detection reviews. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
The CVE wording references database injection or access, so collection and exfiltration review may help. This is a Glexia inferred lookup path, not an official MITRE, ATT&CK, or CVE Program mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
