Title: Unauthenticated Time Based SQL Injection Vulnerability in Beakon versions Title: Unauthenticated Time Based SQL Injection Vulnerability in Beakon versions prior to 5.4.3

Description:

An unauthenticated time-based SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Beakon application within the Learning Management System (LMS)'s SCORM module. By sending specially crafted requests to the json_scorm.php along with ks (injectable) parameter, unauthenticated remote attackers can execute arbitrary SQL commands. This issue affects Beakon application versions before 5.4.3.

Source Name: Geoff Zhang
CVE: CVE-2025-46101 (Reserved for now)
Affected Software: Beakon Software
Affected Versions: versions prior to 5.4.3
Software URL: https://beakon.com.au/, https://beakon.io/

Proof of Concept/Content:

An unauthenticated time-based SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Beakon application within the Learning Management System (LMS)'s SCORM module. By sending specially crafted requests to the json_scorm.php along with ks (injectable) parameter, unauthenticated remote attackers can execute arbitrary SQL commands. This issue affects Beakon version before 5.4.3.

A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to the json_scorm.php function (https://example-base-url/json_scorm.php?s=dummy&m=putSCORM&u=dummy&c=dummy&preview=0&v=SCORM_12&id=dummy&ks=<https://example-base-url/json_scorm.php?s=dummy&m=putSCORM&u=dummy&c=dummy&preview=0&v=SCORM_12&id=dummy&ks={vulnerable}&vt=undefined>{vulnerable}<https://example-base-url/json_scorm.php?s=dummy&m=putSCORM&u=dummy&c=dummy&preview=0&v=SCORM_12&id=dummy&ks={vulnerable}&vt=undefined>&vt=undefined<https://example-base-url/json_scorm.php?s=dummy&m=putSCORM&u=dummy&c=dummy&preview=0&v=SCORM_12&id=dummy&ks={vulnerable}&vt=undefined>). By injecting SQL syntax designed to cause conditional time delays (e.g., using SLEEP, WAITFOR DELAY, pg_sleep) into the [ks] parameter, the attacker can execute arbitary SQL commands.
