Unauthenticated login bypass via SQL injection
Published Feb 14, 2024 · Updated Aug 16, 2024
SQL injection in Sherlock Employee Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to bypass login authentication through /alogin.html. The login handler incorporates the E-mail and Password parameters into an SQL authentication query without neutralizing SQL syntax, so a tautology payload makes the credential predicate true. No account or user interaction is required; successful exploitation grants an authenticated application session.
