Description

code-projects Community Project Scholars Tracking System 1.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection in the admin user management endpoints /admin/save_user.php and /admin/update_user.php. These endpoints lack authentication checks and directly concatenate user-supplied POST parameters (firstname, lastname, username, password, user_id) into SQL queries without validation or parameterization.

• 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.
