CVE-2022-46623Public exploit

Authentication bypass via username SQL injection

Published Jan 12, 2023 · Updated Apr 8, 2025

SQL injection in SourceCodester Judging Management System 1.0.0 allows attackers to bypass login through a crafted username. The login handler interprets a crafted username value as SQL syntax instead of treating the entire value as data. The proof requires access to the login panel but no valid credentials; broader code-execution and privilege-escalation claims lack technical detail.
