PHPGurukul Vehicle Parking Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability

A critical SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in PHPGurukul Vehicle Parking Management System version 1.13. The issue resides in the file '/users/view--detail.php', where the 'viewid' parameter can be manipulated to inject malicious SQL queries. This vulnerability allows attackers to access and manipulate the database, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, data modification, and disruption of services.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where attackers can interfere with the application's database queries. This could lead to unauthorized data access, data manipulation, and in some cases, executing administrative operations on the database.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a GET request to '/vpms/users/view--detail.php' with a crafted 'viewid' parameter that includes SQL injection 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 to a version of PHPGurukul Vehicle Parking Management System that has addressed this vulnerability. Additionally, implementing prepared statements and parameter binding in the code can help prevent SQL injection attacks.
