Unauthenticated SQL injection via unsanitized fname parameter
Published May 10, 2025 · Updated May 12, 2025
SQL injection in PHPGurukul e-Diary Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to alter database queries through the fname field. The profile-update handler places the POSTed fname value directly into an SQL query without parameterization or input neutralization. No authentication or user interaction is required; the published time-based blind payload confirms attacker-controlled query evaluation and a measurable database delay.
