Exploitation Conditions

No special conditions - remote unauthenticated exploitation against default configurations of Hospital Management System in PHP. The vulnerable update_info.php endpoint must be accessible via web, which is standard for this application. No authentication, special configuration, or user interaction required. Exploitation limited only by network access to the web application.

Impact

The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.3 reflects network-accessible, no-authentication-required exploitation with low attack complexity. The exploit code maturity is marked as Proof-of-Concept (E:P), and remediation level is unavailable (RL:X), indicating no vendor fix exists. While not listed in CISA KEV, the combination of public exploit availability, healthcare sector target, and patient data exposure creates significant risk. The moderate CVSS score (not critical) is due to limited impact ratings (C:L/I:L/A:L) rather than difficulty of exploitation. Healthcare organizations using this software face immediate risk of patient data breach and regulatory compliance violations.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker sends a crafted HTTP GET request to update_info.php with SQL injection payload in the appointment_no parameter. The getAllPatientDetail function executes the malicious SQL, allowing the attacker to extract patient records, modify medical data, or potentially gain broader database access.

AnalysisAIv1 – May 18, 2026

SQL injection in projectworlds Hospital Management System in PHP 1.0 enables unauthenticated remote attackers to extract or modify patient data through the appointment_no parameter in update_info.php. The vulnerability has publicly available exploit code and affects the getAllPatientDetail function, with the vendor notified but unresponsive.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. The vendor was notified via GitHub issue but remains unresponsive. Immediate mitigation requires either replacing the vulnerable software or implementing web application firewall (WAF) rules to block SQL injection patterns in the appointment_no parameter. If continued use is necessary, implement input validation for the appointment_no field to accept only numeric values, parameterize all SQL queries in update_info.php, and restrict database user permissions to minimum required operations. Monitor logs for exploitation attempts targeting update_info.php with suspicious appointment_no values.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability affects projectworlds Hospital Management System in PHP version 1.0, a web-based healthcare application. The flaw is a classic SQL injection (CWE-89) where user input from the appointment_no GET parameter is directly incorporated into SQL queries without proper sanitization in the getAllPatientDetail function within update_info.php. This allows attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands that execute in the context of the database connection.

DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw has been found in projectworlds hospital-management-system-in-php 1.0. Affected by this vulnerability is the function getAllPatientDetail of the file update_info.php of the component GET Parameter Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument appointment_no can lead to sql injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

CVE-2026-8785 is a SQL injection vulnerability in projectworlds Hospital Management System PHP 1.0 that allows unauthenticated attackers to directly access and modify patient records, creating immediate risk to protected health information (PHI) and regulatory compliance. Organizations deploying this system face potential data breach, HIPAA violations, and operational disruption without an available vendor patch.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: (1) Implement network segmentation restricting access to update_info.php to authenticated internal users only via VPN/bastion host; (2) Deploy WAF with SQL injection detection rules targeting the appointment_no parameter; (3) Enable comprehensive database activity monitoring and alerting on unauthorized SELECT/UPDATE/DELETE operations; (4) Enforce database user least-privilege principles; (5) Conduct immediate backup verification and restore testing for patient data recovery capability.
