• → Detect POST requests to /app/admin/custom-fields/order.php containing a backtick or UNION SELECT pattern in the 'table' parameter, combined with action=add, as this is the exact injection vector. ↗
• → Monitor POST body parameters for URL-encoded backtick (%60) followed by SQL keywords (UNION, SELECT) in the 'table' field targeting order.php. ↗
• → Require a valid authenticated session (PHPSESSID cookie) for exploitation — detections should correlate authenticated sessions with anomalous SQL patterns in the table parameter. ↗
• → The Content-Type header is application/x-www-form-urlencoded; inspect POST body of requests to this endpoint for SQL injection payloads in the 'table' parameter. ↗

• · Exploitation requires an authenticated admin session; unauthenticated requests will not reach the vulnerable code path. ↗
• · The vulnerability is specific to phpIPAM version 1.4; other versions may not be affected. ↗
