Code-Projects Patient Record Management System SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in Code-Projects Patient Record Management System version 1.0. The issue arises in the file hematology_print.php, where the hem_id parameter can be manipulated to execute unauthorized SQL commands. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely, potentially allowing attackers to access sensitive information from the server's database.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for unrestricted SQL injection, where an attacker can manipulate SQL queries to the database. This could lead to unauthorized data access, data manipulation, or in some cases, executing administrative operations on the database.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, send a request to the hematology_print.php file with a manipulated hem_id parameter. The lack of input validation allows for the execution of arbitrary SQL commands, which can be used to extract or modify database information.
