Description

PHPGurukul Hospital Management System in PHP v4.0 suffers from multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities: multiple pages and parameters are not validating user input, and allow for the application's database and information to be fully compromised.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
