Technical details

The vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw in the /delete_requirement.php file where the 'id' parameter is concatenated directly into SQL queries without proper input validation or parameterized query preparation. An attacker can send a crafted GET request with malicious SQL code in the 'id' parameter to exploit error-based, time-based blind, or stacked query injection techniques. The attack is network-accessible and requires no authentication. Successful exploitation allows complete database compromise, including data exfiltration, modification, and deletion. The fix requires implementing prepared statements with parameter binding and strict input validation on all user-supplied data.
