Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions required: remote unauthenticated exploitation against the default configuration of Church Donation System 1.0. No user interaction is needed. The only limiting factor is the niche deployment footprint of the product.

Impact

CVSS v4 vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L gives a base score of 5.5 (medium), indicating low impact but trivial exploitation. EPSS score is low at 0.07% (20th percentile), suggesting low current exploitation activity in the wild. However, the public availability of exploit code raises the risk for installations using this niche software. The lack of a vendor patch further elevates risk for those who cannot mitigate via input validation.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker sends a crafted HTTP POST request to /admin/index.php containing SQL injection payload in the Username parameter, extracting sensitive data such as login credentials or donation records from the database. The public exploit code reduces the skill barrier for attack.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 27, 2026

SQL injection in Church Donation System 1.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries via the Username parameter in /admin/index.php. A public exploit is available, and the vulnerability is confirmed by vendor disclosure.

RemediationAI

No official patch is identified. Users should apply input validation and parameterized queries to the Username field in /admin/index.php to prevent SQL injection. Additionally, restrict network access to /admin/index.php via authentication or IP whitelisting. Trade-offs: blocking the admin login page may disrupt legitimate administrative access; consider using a web application firewall (WAF) to filter malicious payloads as a temporary measure.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability stems from CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component), a classic SQL injection. The flawed component is the HTTP POST request handler in /admin/index.php, where the Username argument is not sanitized before being used in database queries. The affected software is a PHP-based church donation management system, version 1.0, as indicated by the CPE cpe:2.3:a:carmelo:church_donation_system:1.0.
