Code-Projects Wazifa System SQL Injection Vulnerability in Reset Controller

A critical SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in Code-Projects Wazifa System version 1.0, specifically within the '/controllers/reset.php' file. This vulnerability arises from inadequate validation of user input in the 'email' parameter, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. The 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, extract or modify data, and potentially disrupt services.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a POST request to '/controllers/reset.php' with an injected payload in the 'email' parameter. The injected SQL code can be crafted to exploit the application's database query handling, such as by using error-based or time-based blind SQL injection techniques.

Remediation

It is recommended to implement input validation and sanitization for the 'email' parameter to prevent SQL injection. Additionally, using prepared statements for database queries can help mitigate this vulnerability by separating SQL code from user input.
