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 '/edit_hpatient.php', where the 'ID' parameter is manipulated, allowing for unrestricted SQL injection. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information in the server database.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where an attacker can manipulate database queries. 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 '/edit_hpatient.php' file with a crafted 'ID' parameter that exploits the application's SQL query handling. The lack of input validation allows for the injection of malicious SQL code, which the application will execute, potentially revealing or manipulating database information.
