Code-Projects Simple Student Alumni System SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in Code-Projects Simple Student Alumni System version 1.0. The issue resides in the TracerStudy module, specifically within the recordteacher_view.php file. The vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate the teacherID parameter, enabling them to execute arbitrary SQL commands. This could lead to unauthorized data access or modification.

Impact

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

Reproduction
