Database read and modification via injected employee ID
Published Feb 14, 2024 · Updated May 12, 2025
SQL injection in Employee Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to read or modify database data through /edit.php. The edit endpoint incorporates the id query parameter into a MySQL statement without neutralizing SQL syntax, so injected Boolean, time-delay, and UNION clauses alter the query. The demonstrated path requires an administrative login, after which a crafted employee identifier can dump the application's current database.
