Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions beyond having a reachable, internet-facing instance: the vulnerable signup.php User Registration Endpoint is a public, pre-authentication form, and the email, name, and gender request parameters are passed into a SQL query without proper sanitization, matching AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N. Limiting factors are purely practical - the application must actually be deployed and network-accessible, and realistic impact is bounded to the Low-rated confidentiality/integrity/availability of a single application database; the product's rolling-release model means no patched version is published, and the project has not responded to the reporting GitHub issue.

Impact

This is a SQL injection flaw (CWE-74) in the signup.php user-registration endpoint of the kishor-23 food-waste-management-system, an open-source GitHub hobby project. The supplied CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N, VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) scores 5.5 (Medium) and models remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity exploitation with only Low confidentiality/integrity/availability impact to the vulnerable system and no subsequent-system impact - the E:P flag confirms a proof-of-concept exploit, not active exploitation. Signals are mostly consistent: easy network reach and a public POC push risk upward, while the Low impact ratings and the product's near-zero deployment footprint pull real-world priority sharply down. No EPSS score and no CISA KEV entry were provided, so there is no evidence of widespread or targeted exploitation; the public POC (VulDB) raises opportunistic scanning risk but does not equal in-the-wild use. Note a mild tension: SQL injection in an authentication/registration table often enables full database read/write, which would typically justify higher than VC:L/VI:L - the CNA (VulDB) likely rated impact conservatively, so verify actual database exposure against the specific code. Overall this is a genuine but low-priority issue dominated by the product's rarity rather than by severity.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote, unauthenticated attacker submits the public registration form at signup.php and injects SQL metacharacters into the email, name, or gender parameters, which are concatenated into a backend query without sanitization. A public proof-of-concept exploit exists (VulDB), lowering the skill needed to extract or manipulate database contents such as stored user records.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 05, 2026

Unauthenticated SQL injection in the signup.php user-registration endpoint of the kishor-23 food-waste-management-system allows remote attackers to manipulate the email, name, and gender parameters to inject arbitrary SQL into the application's database queries. The CVSS vector confirms PR:N/UI:N, meaning no credentials or user interaction are required, and publicly available exploit code exists; however, there is no evidence of confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV), and realistic impact is bounded to Low confidentiality, integrity, and availability for a single application database. Because the project follows a rolling-release model, no affected or patched version numbers are published, and the maintainer has not responded to the upstream GitHub issue reporting the flaw.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the upstream project was notified via GitHub issue #5 (https://github.com/kishor-23/food-waste-management-system/issues/5) but has not responded, and the rolling-release model means no fixed version or commit can be cited, so treat the current repository head as vulnerable. The primary corrective action is to replace the string-concatenated SQL in signup.php with parameterized prepared statements (PDO/MySQLi bound parameters) for the email, name, and gender inputs, and to add server-side validation and length/character whitelisting on those fields; until upstream merges such a fix, maintainers should fork and patch locally. Interim compensating controls: block or restrict access to signup.php at the reverse proxy/WAF for untrusted networks (trade-off: legitimate self-registration from the public internet stops working), deploy WAF rules that detect SQL metacharacter patterns such as quotes, UNION, and comment sequences in the registration POST body (trade-off: evasion is possible and false positives may block valid names or emails containing apostrophes), and run the application against a least-privilege database account restricted to the specific tables and operations the app needs so an injected query cannot read or alter unrelated schemas (trade-off: may break features that rely on broader privileges). Given a public exploit is already available, prioritize patching or blocking internet exposure of the registration endpoint.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause is CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component, i.e. the parent class of injection weaknesses), which here manifests concretely as SQL injection in the PHP registration handler signup.php. The application accepts user-supplied email, name, and gender values from a public, pre-authentication HTML form and passes them into a backend SQL statement without adequate sanitization or parameter binding, so an attacker can reshape the query by injecting SQL metacharacters into those fields. The affected code resides in the kishor-23/food-waste-management-system repository at commit 411989e3ecb82895e53dca7865f72145f03d7d93 (with the related build/commit reference b3a70b2c492dc9904de5be1ad9389bd79b87f82c); the project is distributed as a rolling release with continuous delivery, so no versioned release artifact or CPE baseline is published, and the only authoritative references are the GitHub repository and issue #5, plus VulDB entries 413429 and CVE-2026-105229. The attack is network-reachable (AV:N, AC:L, AT:N) and needs no special privileges, making the web-accessible registration form the entire attack surface.

DescriptionCVE.org

A weakness has been identified in kishor-23 food-waste-management-system 411989e3ecb82895e53dca7865f72145f03d7d93/b3a70b2c492dc9904de5be1ad9389bd79b87f82c. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file signup.php of the component User Registration Endpoint. Executing a manipulation of the argument email/name/gender can lead to sql injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. This product utilizes a rolling release system for continuous delivery, and as such, version information for affected or updated releases is not disclosed. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
