Unauthenticated SQL injection via public post parameter
Published Jun 5, 2025 · Updated Jun 5, 2025
SQL injection in Code Projects Content Management System and NEWS-BUZZ 1.0 allows remote attackers to manipulate database queries. The publicposts.php endpoint passes the GET post parameter into a MySQL query without adequate neutralization, enabling error-based and time-based blind injection. No authentication or user interaction is required; demonstrated queries trigger database errors or time delays, while broader read or write effects depend on database privileges.
