MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires that the application's registration component (/source/registerform3.php) be network-reachable and that the 'pemail' parameter be processed as part of a database query; per the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) no authentication, elevated privileges, or user interaction is needed against a reachable instance. The practical limiting factors are deployment scope and lifecycle: the product is no longer supported and is distributed via rolling releases with no version identifiers, so there is no fixed release to apply, and the only mitigations are those a defender can impose independently (restricting access to or retiring the application). The trigger beyond manipulation of the 'pemail' argument is not further described in the available sources. |
| Impact | The signals point to a genuine but moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated flaw requiring no user interaction, which maximizes reachability; however, the impact metrics are all Low (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) and scope is unchanged, yielding a score of 6.9 (Medium). The embedded E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit maturity aligns with the input's note that only an unverified PoC reference exists - not confirmed working exploit code - so reachability is high but demonstrated weaponization is not established. There is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score was provided, so there is no evidence of active or widespread exploitation; the vuln.today decision label is 'this_month', consistent with a real-but-not-urgent remediation cadence. The most important risk-limiting factor is not technical but lifecycle: the vendor confirms this product is no longer supported and uses rolling releases, so no fixed version exists and the vendor did not respond - meaning any deployment is unpatchable and must be mitigated or retired. Low EPSS/KEV absence combined with a PoC-stage exploit and an abandoned, obscure product suggests opportunistic rather than mass exploitation risk. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker submits a crafted value in the 'pemail' parameter to /source/registerform3.php, injecting SQL into the registration query (CWE-89). This could let them read or tamper with limited database contents such as applicant or account records. A public PoC reference exists but is not verified as working exploit code, so practical exploitation may require an attacker to reconstruct the payload. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 25, 2026
SQL injection in the Registration component of krupalshah Employee Recruitment System (/source/registerform3.php) allows unauthenticated remote attackers to manipulate the pemail argument and influence database queries, with low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact per the assessed CVSS:3.1 vector. The product is unsupported and distributed through rolling releases without version identifiers, so the CPE wildcard covers all deployments up to commit 922ff6d208278282e7c8e36d70d9ae356adec9fe. A public PoC reference exists; it is not verified as working exploit code, and no CISA KEV confirmation of active exploitation is available; the issue is moderate-priority rather than an emergency.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch or fixed version was identified at time of analysis. The vendor did not respond to early contact, the product is no longer supported by the maintainer, and rolling releases mean there is no patched release to cite. The practical remediation is therefore to retire the application or restrict network access to it, especially the /source/registerform3.php registration endpoint, so that only trusted networks or users can reach it; restricting access breaks registration for excluded users, while retirement removes the recruitment functionality entirely. Monitor the VulDB advisory at https://vuldb.com/vuln/426132 and the CVE record at https://vuldb.com/cve/CVE-2026-116050 for any later vendor guidance. The public reference at https://github.com/ubfbuz3/cve/issues/61 is a PoC reference and is not verified as working exploit code.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected software is a PHP-based recruitment application, and the flaw is CWE-89 SQL injection in the registration workflow. The available sources state that manipulating the pemail argument in /source/registerform3.php leads to SQL injection, but they do not describe the query construction, whether the parameter is concatenated into SQL, or whether other parameters are similarly affected. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:krupalshah:employee_recruitment_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* uses a wildcard because the product follows continuous delivery with rolling releases and no version details are available; the only concrete code reference is commit 922ff6d208278282e7c8e36d70d9ae356adec9fe. Exploitation requires the registration endpoint to be network-reachable and the pemail value to be processed in a database query; the trigger beyond manipulation of that argument is not described in the available sources.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability has been found in krupalshah Employee Recruitment System up to 922ff6d208278282e7c8e36d70d9ae356adec9fe. This affects an unknown part of the file /source/registerform3.php of the component Registration. The manipulation of the argument pemail leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Continious delivery with rolling releases is used by this product. Therefore, no version details of affected nor updated releases are available. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
