Technical details

A time-based blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in code-projects Internship Management System 1.0 within the 'employer/login.php' file. The application fails to sanitize or parameterize the 'email' and 'password' POST parameters before concatenating them into a SQL query. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can provide specially crafted input to trigger database delays (e.g., using the SLEEP function) or bypass authentication entirely. This flaw allows for the extraction of sensitive database information through blind inference and potentially full compromise of the backend database.
