Unauthenticated database access via username concatenation
Published Jul 22, 2025 · Updated Jul 22, 2025
SQL injection in Code Projects Public Chat Room 1.0 allows remote attackers to access or alter database data through the login form. The login.php handler directly concatenates the POST username value into an SQL query without escaping, parameter binding, or a prepared statement. No account or user interaction is required; crafted error-based or time-based input can bypass authentication and disclose or modify database records.
