Unauthenticated database dump disclosure via predictable URL
Published Sep 6, 2026 · Updated Sep 8, 2026
Information disclosure in Code Projects Daily Expense Manager 1.0 allows remote attackers to retrieve an exposed SQL database dump. The deployment instructions place exp_ak.sql inside the web document root, and the server serves that static file through a predictable URL. Exploitation requires the SQL file to remain in place without web-server access restrictions, exposing its schema and any stored records.
