Technical details

The vulnerability is a classic SQL injection affecting the Management Mutation Handler component in add/edit/delete operations (add_student.php, add_teacher.php, add_result.php, admin_edit_student.php, admin_edit_teacher.php, admin_edit_result.php, delete_student.php, delete_teacher.php, delete_result.php). POST parameters including roll_no, name, father_name, class, mobile, email, password, and remark are directly embedded into SQL queries without parameterization or type casting. An unauthenticated attacker can craft POST requests with SQL predicates in parameters like "roll_no=1 OR 1=1" to modify all records instead of a single target, or use DELETE predicates to destroy data. The attack requires network access and does not mandate prior authentication; a published exploit exists and the vendor has not yet responded to the security report.
