CVE-2023-43470Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Arbitrary SQL execution via unparameterized login query

Published Sep 22, 2023 · Updated Sep 24, 2024

SQL injection in janobe Online Voting System 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL through checklogin.php. The script performs ineffective validation and embeds the myusername form value in a login query, allowing quotes and SQL expressions to alter execution. No authentication or user interaction is required; the public proof demonstrates a time-delay query through the login request, while the CNA records arbitrary code execution.
