Authenticated SQL injection via interpolated admin_id
Published Mar 17, 2024 · Updated Aug 22, 2024
SQL injection in SourceCodester Employee Task Management System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to manipulate database queries. The update-employee.php handler copies the admin_id GET parameter directly into a quoted WHERE clause without binding or escaping it. An authenticated session with the administrator role is required; a crafted value can read or alter data available to the application's database account.
