Q1What is this vulnerability? (Essence + Consequences)
π¨ **Essence**: SQL Injection in `add_results.php`. The `class_name` parameter is unvalidated. π **Consequences**: Full database compromise. Data theft, modification, or destruction is possible.β¦
π‘οΈ **Root Cause**: **CWE-89** (SQL Injection). The application fails to sanitize the `class_name` input. Malicious SQL code is sent directly to the database without filtering. π« No input validation.
Q3Who is affected? (Versions/Components)
π« **Affected**: Projectworlds Student Result Management System. π¦ **Version**: v1.0. π’ **Vendor**: Projectworlds Pvt. Limited (India). Only the specific v1.0 release is confirmed vulnerable.
Q4What can hackers do? (Privileges/Data)
π **Attacker Capabilities**: High privileges. Can read all database contents (C:H). Can modify or delete records (I:H). Can potentially execute administrative commands (A:H). ποΈ Full control over student result data.
Q5Is exploitation threshold high? (Auth/Config)
π **Threshold**: **LOW**. π **Network**: Remote (AV:N). π **Auth**: None required (PR:N). ποΈ **UI**: No interaction needed (UI:N). π― **Complexity**: Low (AC:L). Easy to exploit remotely without credentials.
Q6Is there a public Exp? (PoC/Wild Exploitation)
π **Public Exp**: No specific PoC code provided in the data. β οΈ **Status**: Third-party advisory exists (Fluid Attacks). Wild exploitation is likely given the low barrier to entry and lack of auth.
Q7How to self-check? (Features/Scanning)
π **Self-Check**: Scan for `add_results.php` endpoint. Test the `class_name` parameter with SQL injection payloads (e.g., `' OR 1=1--`). Look for error messages or data leakage in responses.β¦
π **Workaround**: If no patch: 1. Block access to `add_results.php` via WAF/ACL. 2. Implement strict input validation for `class_name` on the server side. 3. Use parameterized queries if code access is available.β¦
