Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation targets the 'email' argument of parent_Login.php in the Public Search Feature; the CVSS vector (PR:N/UI:N) indicates unauthenticated access with no user interaction, consistent with a pre-login/public endpoint, so a default internet-exposed deployment of sumiie24 School-Management-System is reachable remotely. The trigger mechanism beyond 'manipulation of the email argument leading to SQL injection' is not detailed in the available sources. Limiting factors: the product has a very small real-world footprint (obscure open-source project), and because it ships as a rolling release there is no disclosed fixed version or vendor advisory to confirm affected ranges - the only version anchor is commit d946d649c7c95e101fc5679ecd91999533bb10d7 and earlier.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9 (medium), with a vector describing a fully remote, unauthenticated, low-complexity attack (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) and low impact to confidentiality, integrity and availability (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L). The E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit maturity aligns with the input showing a public PoC reference that is not verified as working exploit code. There is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score in the provided data, so there is no signal of active or widespread exploitation; absence of EPSS/KEV is not itself an error but it limits confidence in real-world weaponization. The vuln.today Decision label is 'this_month', indicating a near-term but non-emergency remediation priority - consistent with a medium-severity, remotely reachable SQL injection on an obscure product. The practical risk is tempered by prevalence: this is a small open-source school-management project, not widely deployed enterprise software, so mass exploitation is unlikely even though the flaw is remotely reachable. Note a data gap: the vendor was contacted but did not respond, there is no vendor advisory, and because the product uses a rolling release, no fixed version is disclosed - meaning no confirmed patch exists to point defenders toward.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A remote attacker submits a crafted value in the 'email' argument to parent_Login.php (the Public Search Feature) without needing credentials, and the unsanitized input is concatenated into a SQL query. Because the login/search endpoint is internet-reachable and requires no authentication or user interaction, the attacker can manipulate the backend query to read or alter database contents. A public PoC reference exists (a GitHub issue), but it is not verified as working exploit code.

AnalysisAIv1 – Nov 03, 2026

SQL injection in the parent_Login.php endpoint of the sumiie24 School-Management-System (all code up to commit d946d649c7c95e101fc5679ecd91999533bb10d7) lets remote, unauthenticated attackers manipulate the 'email' argument of the Public Search Feature to alter the backend SQL query. Because the vector is PR:N/UI:N, the vulnerable endpoint is reachable pre-authentication from any internet-exposed deployment, with low impact to confidentiality, integrity and availability (CVSS 4.0 score 6.9, medium). A public PoC reference exists (a GitHub issue linked from the VulDB entry) but is not verified as working exploit code, and the vendor did not respond to disclosure; the project uses a rolling release model, so no fixed version or advisory confirms the affected range.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch or fixed version is identified: the maintainer was contacted about this disclosure and did not respond, and the rolling release model publishes no version numbers, so there is no confirmed commit or release to upgrade to. Until a fix appears, restrict reachability of the parent_Login.php public search endpoint - for example by blocking or allow-listing that path at the reverse proxy or web server for untrusted networks - accepting that parent login/search functionality breaks for those users; alternatively expose the whole application only behind a VPN or internal network, at the cost of public availability. Deploying a WAF rule that inspects the 'email' parameter for SQL metacharacters and injection patterns raises the bar but is bypassable and needs tuning to avoid blocking legitimate parent logins. The durable fix is code-level: replace the string-concatenated query in parent_Login.php with parameterized prepared statements (PDO or mysqli) and validate the email input, which requires a maintainer or self-applied patch since none is supplied. Monitor the VulDB entry (https://vuldb.com/vuln/430289) and the referenced GitHub issue (https://github.com/Sean-798/cve/issues/1) for a fix or updated PoC.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The target is a PHP-based school management web application; the flaw is CWE-89 (improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command), meaning the value supplied in the 'email' argument of parent_Login.php reaches a database query without adequate parameterization, allowing an attacker to inject SQL syntax. Per the assessed vector, the endpoint sits in the Public Search Feature and is reachable with no privileges and no user interaction, consistent with a pre-login page. The sources do not describe the trigger mechanism beyond 'manipulation of the email argument', nor the DBMS backend or whether the injection is error-, union- or boolean-based, so the precise query construction and exploitation technique are not confirmed. Deployment is via rolling release with no versioned artifacts, leaving commit d946d649c7c95e101fc5679ecd91999533bb10d7 as the only version anchor (CPE cpe:2.3:a:sumiie24:school-management-system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*). The project has a very small real-world footprint, which limits exposure but also means little community scrutiny or hardening guidance.

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in sumiie24 School-Management-System up to d946d649c7c95e101fc5679ecd91999533bb10d7. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file parent_Login.php of the component Public Search Feature. Executing a manipulation of the argument email can lead to sql injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been published and may be used. This product utilizes a rolling release system for continuous delivery, and as such, version information for affected or updated releases is not disclosed. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
