itsourcecode Society Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability in Activity Edit Function

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in the itsourcecode Society Management System version 1.0. The issue arises in the admin/edit_activity.php file, where the activity_id parameter is manipulated, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely, without any authentication, leading to unauthorized database access, data modification or deletion, and exposure of sensitive information.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, with potential consequences including unauthorized database access, data manipulation, and access to sensitive information.

Reproduction

The vulnerability can be reproduced by sending a crafted request to the admin/edit_activity.php file with a manipulated activity_id parameter. This can be done using a variety of SQL injection payloads, such as those that exploit boolean-based or time-based blind SQL injection techniques.

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.
