Code-Projects Modern Bag SQL Injection Vulnerability

A critical SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in Code-Projects Modern Bag version 1.0, specifically within the login.php file. This vulnerability arises from inadequate validation of user input in the userPassword parameter, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to the database, manipulation or deletion of data, and exposure of sensitive information. Notably, this vulnerability can be exploited remotely without any authentication.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where attackers can manipulate database queries to gain unauthorized access to the database, alter or delete data, and access confidential information. Such actions pose a significant risk to the overall security of the system and the integrity of its data.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, send a POST request to login.php with the userEmail and userPassword parameters. Include a crafted payload in the userPassword parameter that exploits the SQL injection vulnerability, such as one that bypasses authentication or extracts database information.

Remediation

It is recommended to use prepared statements and parameter binding to prevent SQL injection, validate and filter user input, minimize database user permissions, and conduct regular security audits.
