Authenticated SQL injection via post title parameter
Published Apr 15, 2024 · Updated May 30, 2025
SQL injection in PHPGurukul News Portal 4.1 allows remote authenticated users to read or modify database data via crafted post titles. The edit-post.php handler accepts posttitle or category in the vulnerable database operation, but public sources do not disclose the query construction. Access requires an admin or sub-admin session, and successful injection can expose or alter application data.
