Exploitation Conditions

The attacker must be authenticated with at least low-level privileges on the PHPGurukul User Management System. The /admin/manage-users.php endpoint must be reachable (typically authenticated users have access). No other special configuration or feature enabling is required.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) suggests low impact per metric, but typical SQL injection can fully compromise database confidentiality and integrity, so the actual impact is likely higher. The EPSS score is 0.04%, indicating very low probability of widespread exploitation. There is no KEV listing, and while a public proof-of-concept exists, no active exploitation has been reported. If the admin interface allows any authenticated user, the risk is elevated for environments that expose it; however, if access is restricted to privileged accounts, the real-world risk is reduced. Overall, this appears to be a moderate risk vulnerability-exploitable but unlikely to be broadly targeted.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An authenticated low-privileged attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to /admin/manage-users.php with a malicious SQL payload in the ID parameter. The backend constructs and executes the SQL query without proper sanitization, allowing the attacker to extract user credentials or modify database records. A public proof-of-concept exploit is available.

Monitor Track and reassess. Why: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9).

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 27, 2026

SQL injection vulnerability in PHPGurukul User Registration & Login and User Management System 3.3 allows authenticated, low-privilege attackers to manipulate SQL queries via the ID parameter of /admin/manage-users.php. Public exploit code is available, but there is no evidence of active exploitation (not in CISA KEV). Exploitation can lead to unauthorized access, modification, or extraction of database contents, including user credentials.

RemediationAI

No official patch has been released by the vendor. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to /admin/manage-users.php to trusted users only, deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the ID parameter, and if source code is available, apply input sanitization using prepared statements or parameterized queries. Note that WAF rules may be bypassed by obfuscated payloads, and access restriction alone does not prevent abuse by legitimate authenticated users.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw resides in a PHP-based user management framework where the /admin/manage-users.php endpoint fails to properly sanitize the ID input before including it in an SQL statement, leading to CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component). The affected product is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:phpgurukul:user_registration_\&_login_and_user_management_system:3.3:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The underlying technology stack likely uses MySQL or similar relational database, and the injection occurs through an administrative interface that should only be accessible after authentication.
