PHPGurukul Beauty Parlour Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability in Version 1.1

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the PHPGurukul Beauty Parlour Management System version 1.1. The issue arises in the file '/admin/manage-services.php', where the 'delid' parameter is improperly validated, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely, without any authentication, potentially leading to unauthorized access to the database, data manipulation or deletion, and leakage of sensitive information.

Impact

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

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a GET request to '/admin/manage-services.php' with a crafted 'delid' parameter that includes malicious SQL payloads. This can be done using tools like sqlmap, which automates the process of finding and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Remediation

It is recommended to update the application to a version that addresses this vulnerability. If no such version is available, consider applying input validation and sanitization measures for the 'delid' parameter to prevent SQL injection. Additionally, using prepared statements for database queries can help mitigate this type of vulnerability.
