Technical details

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in Sourcecodester Basic Library System v1.0 within the 'book_id' parameter of the /librarysystem/load_book.php component. The application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in a database query, allowing for Union-based SQL injection. An attacker with high-privileged access (e.g., an administrator) can exploit this to leak database metadata or other sensitive information. The vulnerability was demonstrated using a payload that extracts the database name via a UNION SELECT statement. No official patch is currently documented.
