Database access via unescaped first name
Published May 19, 2025 · Updated May 19, 2025
SQL injection in Projectworlds Online Lawyer Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to access and alter database data. The save_lawyer_edit_profile.php endpoint places the multipart first_Name value directly into an SQL query without validation or parameter binding, enabling boolean-, error-, and time-based injection. No login or user interaction is required; successful injection permits database contents to be read, modified, or deleted.
