PHPGurukul Student Record Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in PHPGurukul Student Record Management System version 3.20. The issue arises in the login.php file, where the id and password parameters can be manipulated to inject malicious SQL queries. This vulnerability allows attackers to interfere with the application's database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or modification.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where an attacker can manipulate database queries. This could lead to unauthorized data access, data manipulation, or in some cases, executing administrative operations on the database.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, log into the application and navigate to the login.php page. Inject SQL payloads into the id and password fields. A time-based SQL injection payload can be used to test the vulnerability by, for example, adding a sleep command to delay the response and indicate successful exploitation.
