Technical details
Unauthenticated SQL injection in the EditPolicyHolder.php file where GET parameters Policy_no and Name are concatenated directly into a SQL query without prepared statements or input validation. The authentication check in header.php uses header() redirect without exit(), allowing the vulnerable query to execute without a valid session. An attacker can use UNION SELECT or other SQL injection techniques to extract arbitrary data or manipulate database records.
