Database disclosure via injectable login fields
Published Feb 17, 2023 · Updated Mar 18, 2025
SQL injection in Simple Task Managing System 1.0 allows remote attackers to read or modify database data through the login form. The loginValidation.php handler incorporates POSTed login and password values into its MySQL authentication query without neutralizing SQL syntax. Authentication is not required; crafted requests can dump the tasker users table, while operating-system code execution depends on database privileges.
