Credential disclosure via exposed SQL backup
Published Aug 20, 2026 · Updated Aug 20, 2026
Information disclosure in Code Projects Login Registration System 1.0 allows remote attackers to download a database backup without authentication. The application places database/login_registration_system.sql beneath the web root and serves direct HTTP requests without an access-control check. No account or user interaction is required; the retrieved SQL dump exposes stored names, email addresses, plaintext passwords, and database structure.
