Database read and modification via admin username injection
Published Dec 28, 2023 · Updated Aug 2, 2024
SQL injection in Code Projects Voting System 1.0 allows remote attackers to read or modify database data through the admin username field. The admin login handler places the POST username value into a MySQL WHERE or HAVING expression without neutralizing quotes and operators, enabling boolean- and time-based blind queries. No valid admin session is required because the field is processed during sign-in, and the published proof of concept retrieves the current database name.
