Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.
How to fix
Use prepared statements with parameterized queries (mysqli_prepare with mysqli_stmt_bind_param) to prevent SQL injection. Additionally, retrieve the admin_id from $_SESSION['id'] for profile views rather than from the GET parameter to prevent unauthorized access to other users' profiles.
Technical details
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in profile.php where the admin_id GET parameter is concatenated directly into a SELECT query without sanitization, affecting the mysqli_query function. The vulnerability is reachable by any authenticated user and has been confirmed via sqlmap using boolean-based blind, time-based blind, and UNION-based SQL injection techniques. An attacker with valid credentials can extract the entire admin table containing usernames, email addresses, contact information, and password hashes.
