Database disclosure via pagetitle SQL injection
Published Aug 25, 2025 · Updated Apr 6, 2026
SQL injection in the administrative page of PHPGurukul Hospital Management System 4.0 lets authenticated remote attackers read database data. The pagetitle handler accepts POST data without neutralizing SQL syntax, so a nested SELECT SLEEP expression alters query execution. A valid administrator session is required; the demonstrated payload delays the database response by five seconds and supports blind extraction.
