Unauthenticated database access via unsanitized username
Published Dec 12, 2024 · Updated Dec 16, 2024
SQL injection in /admin/index.php in PHPGurukul Online Nurse Hiring System 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL. The login handler uses the POST username parameter in a database query without validation or sanitization, permitting time-based blind and UNION payloads. No authentication or user interaction is required; successful exploitation bypasses the administrator login and enables unauthorized database access.
