CVE-2026-117516 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.3 · Published 2026-10-27

PHP Travel Agency System is a web application for managing travel bookings and customer inquiries. The public contact form fails to validate or escape user input, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands and insert malicious data into the application database. An attacker can corrupt data, inject stored XSS payloads that execute when administrators view contact submissions, and extract schema information from database error messages.

## Technical details

The contact_insert.php file contains an SQL injection vulnerability in its INSERT statement, which concatenates unsanitized POST parameters (name, company, email, topic, phone, comments) directly into the query without escaping or prepared statements. The attack is unauthenticated and remotely exploitable via the public contact form endpoint; verbose database errors are echoed back to clients, aiding reconnaissance. An attacker can inject multi-tuple payloads to insert arbitrary rows into the contact table and craft stored XSS payloads within those rows, which execute in the admin panel when unescaped.
