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 only network access to a deployed CloudClassroom-PHP-Project instance exposing the Faculty Authentication page (loginlinkfaculty.php); the attacker manipulates the fid or pass request argument to inject SQL. No authentication, no user interaction, and no non-default configuration are needed - the vulnerable login endpoint is a core part of the application. The primary limiting factor is deployment scarcity: the product is an obscure PHP project with negligible production presence, and no patched release exists because the vendor uses rolling releases and did not respond to disclosure. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 base score of 6.9 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with Low VC/VI/VA) describes a remotely reachable, unauthenticated, low-complexity SQL injection - a genuinely easy-to-reach flaw. The provided vector already carries E:P (Proof-of-Concept exploit maturity), which is corroborated by the multi-source data: a public PoC exists on GitHub (smithbraz/PoC-CloudClassroom-AuthBypass), so exploitability is confirmed at the code level. However, this is NOT CISA KEV-listed and there is no EPSS score supplied, so there is no evidence of widespread or active in-the-wild exploitation. The real-world priority is tempered heavily by product prevalence: mathurvishal CloudClassroom-PHP-Project is an obscure hobby/student PHP application, not enterprise software, so the large-scale exploitation signal is weak despite the trivial attack path. One caveat: the impact metrics are rated Low across the board by VulDB, but a raw SQL injection in an authentication query commonly enables full database read (higher confidentiality) - the actual impact could be understated. Net: technically a real, easily-triggered unauthenticated SQLi with public PoC, but low aggregate risk driven by rare deployment footprint rather than by any mitigating technical factor. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote, unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to loginlinkfaculty.php, injecting SQL through the fid or pass parameter of the Faculty Authentication component to bypass the login check or extract database contents. A public proof-of-concept explicitly targeting this authentication bypass is available on GitHub, so no exploit development is required. Given AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, the attack is a single unauthenticated web request against a default installation. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 25, 2026
SQL injection in the faculty authentication handler (loginlinkfaculty.php) of mathurvishal's CloudClassroom-PHP-Project lets unauthenticated remote attackers manipulate the fid or pass request arguments to alter the backend SQL query, potentially bypassing faculty login and reading or modifying application data. Exploitation needs only network reachability to the exposed login endpoint - the CVSS 4.0 vector is AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with Low confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (base 6.9), so no credentials, user interaction, or non-default configuration are required. Publicly available exploit code exists (a GitHub proof-of-concept demonstrating authentication bypass), but the practical risk is tempered by deployment scarcity: the vendor uses rolling releases, published no version details, responded to neither disclosure, and no vendor-released patch is currently identified.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch is identified at time of analysis: the vendor was contacted about the disclosure and did not respond, and the project's rolling-release model means no fixed version number exists to upgrade to. The durable fix is to fork or locally maintain the codebase and rewrite the faculty login query in loginlinkfaculty.php to use parameterized statements (PDO or mysqli prepared statements) with bound parameters for fid and pass, plus strict input validation and type constraints on those fields; because no upstream release will carry this fix, source-level remediation is the only complete solution. Compensating controls, in order of preference: take the application off the public internet or restrict https access to loginlinkfaculty.php via reverse-proxy/IP allowlisting or HTTP authentication, accepting that this blocks legitimate remote faculty logins; deploy WAF rules that block SQL metacharacters and common injection patterns on the fid and pass parameters, recognizing that signature-based filtering causes false positives on legitimate credentials and can be bypassed with encoding variations; and enable verbose-to-centralized logging of SQL errors and authentication failures on that endpoint to detect injection attempts. For deployments with no active need for this project, retiring or replacing the unmaintained application is the lowest-risk option. Refer to the VulDB advisory and the public proof-of-concept (https://github.com/smithbraz/PoC-CloudClassroom-AuthBypass) for reproduction details when validating any interim mitigation.

Technical ContextAI · show details
CloudClassroom-PHP-Project is a PHP web application, and the affected element is the faculty authentication component implemented in loginlinkfaculty.php. The root cause is CWE-89, Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command: user-supplied values for the fid and pass parameters are incorporated into a SQL query without parameterization or sufficient escaping, so an attacker can inject SQL syntax that changes query semantics - an authentication-bypass pattern consistent with the published proof-of-concept. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:mathurvishal:cloudclassroom-php-project:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies the product with a wildcard version, reflecting the project's rolling-release model where no discrete affected or fixed version numbers are published. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P) confirms an unauthenticated, remotely reachable, low-complexity flaw with limited per-metric impact and an assessed exploit maturity of Proof-of-Concept, which aligns with the independently assessed CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N).

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in mathurvishal CloudClassroom-PHP-Project up to 5dadec098bfbbf3300d60c3494db3fb95b66e7be. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file loginlinkfaculty.php of the component Faculty Authentication. Executing a manipulation of the argument fid/pass can lead to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. This product takes the approach of rolling releases to provide continious delivery. Therefore, version details for affected and updated releases are not available. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
