CVE-2025-4785Network attack vector

Database query manipulation via profile field concatenation

Published May 16, 2025 · Updated May 16, 2025

SQL injection in user-profile.php in PHPGurukul Daily Expense Tracker System 1.1 allows remote attackers to alter database queries. The profile update handler concatenates POST fullname and contactnumber values directly into a tbluser UPDATE statement without parameter binding or escaping. A crafted profile-update request requires no user interaction, and resulting database reads or writes remain bounded by the application's MySQL account.
