PHPGurukul Vehicle Parking Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability in Print.php

A critical SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in PHPGurukul Vehicle Parking Management System version 1.13. The issue resides in the file '/users/print.php', where the 'vid' parameter is manipulated to inject malicious SQL code. This exploitation occurs without proper input validation or sanitization, allowing attackers to interfere with SQL queries and execute unauthorized database operations. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, with public knowledge of the exploit available.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized database access, data manipulation or deletion, and access to sensitive information. Such actions could disrupt normal system operations and cause significant harm to business continuity.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a GET request to '/vpms/users/print.php' with a crafted 'vid' 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 the application to a version that addresses this vulnerability. If no update is available, consider applying input validation and sanitization measures for the 'vid' parameter, and use prepared statements to prevent SQL injection. Additionally, review database user permissions to ensure they are not overly permissive.
