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 targets the EditPolicyHolder.php script in the agent policy-management module by supplying a malicious Policy_no or Name parameter that is concatenated into a mysqli_query call. The supplied CVSS vector indicates no required privileges or user interaction (PR:N/UI:N), but the '/Agent/ManagePolicy/' path indicates this functionality normally resides behind an agent login, so realistic exploitation likely requires reaching an authenticated agent-portal session - authentication requirements are not definitively confirmed from the available data. Limiting factors: the software is a niche open-source project with negligible production deployment, there is no vendor patch (rolling release, maintainer unresponsive), and exploitation depends on the specific vulnerable commit being deployed. |
| Impact | This is a genuine but low-priority vulnerability. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) describes a trivially reachable network-based SQL injection, but the impact metrics are uniformly Low (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) with no scope change, yielding a modest 6.9 'MEDIUM' score - contradicting any assumption that an SQLi is automatically critical. The E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit maturity aligns with the reported publicly available exploit code (a GitHub issue), confirming POC availability rather than active exploitation. This is NOT in CISA KEV and no EPSS score was provided, so there is no evidence of widespread or automated exploitation - treat it as publicly-known-but-not-weaponized. A key tension: the vulnerable file sits under '/Agent/ManagePolicy/EditPolicyHolder.php', a path strongly implying an authenticated agent/operator portal, yet the official vector asserts PR:N (unauthenticated) and the description does not state any auth requirement - this discrepancy should be verified against the application's actual access controls. Overall, the obscure hobby-project nature of the affected software is the dominant risk-reducing factor; this is a high-visibility-but-low-real-risk issue outside the handful of environments that actually run this specific project. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker reaches the EditPolicyHolder.php endpoint and submits a crafted value in the Policy_no or Name parameter that breaks out of the SQL query passed to mysqli_query, allowing database content to be read or manipulated. Public exploit details have been released via the project's GitHub issue tracker, lowering the skill needed to reproduce it. Because the endpoint lives under an '/Agent/' path, successful remote exploitation may in practice require access to the agent portal. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026
SQL injection in the dhikshitha29 Insurance-Management-System agent policy editor (EditPolicyHolder.php) lets remote attackers manipulate the Policy_no and Name parameters, which are concatenated directly into a mysqli_query call, potentially exposing or altering policy-holder records. The project is a niche open-source PHP application maintained on a rolling release with no published fixed version and an unresponsive maintainer, and publicly available exploit code exists. The supplied CVSS vector indicates no required privileges (PR:N) and no user interaction, but because the affected script resides under /Agent/ManagePolicy/, realistic exploitation likely requires an authenticated agent-portal session; authentication requirements are not definitively confirmed from the available data, and production exposure is expected to be minimal.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the project uses a rolling release model and the maintainer has not responded to the issue report, so no fixed version or commit can be cited. Until an upstream fix lands, replace the concatenated mysqli_query call in /Agent/ManagePolicy/EditPolicyHolder.php with a prepared statement using mysqli_prepare and bind_param, explicitly casting Policy_no to an integer and treating Name as a bound string, and test that policy edits still function. Restrict access to /Agent/ManagePolicy/ so it is reachable only after a valid agent login, for example with an .htaccess or reverse-proxy rule, accepting that this adds session-management overhead and may break integrations that call the endpoint directly. Deploy a WAF rule that flags SQL metacharacters in Policy_no and Name on that path, understanding that false positives can block legitimate policy edits and that WAF coverage is bypassable. Because public exploit code exists, prioritize inventory checks for exposed deployments of this repository and remove or isolate any internet-facing instances that are not actively maintained.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is a PHP-based insurance management web application that uses the mysqli extension for database access. CWE-89 (SQL Injection) arises because user-controlled input from the Policy_no and Name parameters is concatenated into a SQL statement passed to mysqli_query in /Agent/ManagePolicy/EditPolicyHolder.php without parameterization or escaping, allowing an attacker to alter query logic. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:dhikshitha29:insurance-management-system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* reflects a rolling-release repository with no versioned artifacts, so affected code is defined by the referenced commits rather than a release number. The vulnerability sits in the agent-facing policy-management module, which normally requires an agent login, making the practical attack surface smaller than the network vector alone suggests.

A security flaw has been discovered in dhikshitha29 Insurance-Management-System 91de5edda5baa109ad8e9baf03ce6a3ceda84183/125362cc21dca20d74091a4913a5096bb58dd837. Affected by this vulnerability is the function mysqli_query of the file /Agent/ManagePolicy/EditPolicyHolder.php. Performing a manipulation of the argument Policy_no/Name results in sql injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. This product adopts a rolling release strategy to maintain continuous delivery. Therefore, version details for affected or updated releases cannot be specified. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
