A vulnerability has been found in raisulislamg4 student_management_system_by_php up to 310d950e09013d5133c6b9210aff9444382d16d1. The affected element is an unknown function of the file add_user_check.php of the component User Creation Handler. The manipulation of the argument role leads to sql injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. This product follows a rolling release approach for continuous delivery, so version details for affected or updated releases are not provided. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in raisulislamg4's PHP-based Student Management System allows remote unauthenticated attackers to manipulate the 'role' parameter in add_user_check.php to inject arbitrary SQL queries. Publicly available exploit code exists per VulDB disclosure, and the project (a rolling-release GitHub repository) has not responded to the reporter's issue, leaving deployments unpatched. CVSS 7.3 with low complexity and no privileges required makes this an attractive low-effort target despite the limited deployment footprint of this open-source educational project.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability is a classic CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) flaw in the User Creation Handler component (add_user_check.php). The affected codebase is a PHP-based student management application by GitHub user raisulislamg4, identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:raisulislamg4:student_management_system_by_php. SQL injection in this context typically arises from concatenating user-supplied POST/GET parameters directly into SQL statements without prepared statements or parameterized queries - here the 'role' argument from a user-creation form is inlined into a query against the user database, allowing an attacker to break out of the intended string context and append arbitrary SQL.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the maintainer was notified via GitHub issue #4 but has not responded. Operators should immediately replace the vulnerable SQL construction in add_user_check.php with parameterized queries using PDO prepared statements or mysqli_prepare with bound parameters for the 'role' argument and any other user-controlled inputs in that handler, and audit sibling handlers for the same pattern. Until a self-patched build is deployed, compensating controls include restricting the user-creation endpoint to authenticated administrative sessions via a front-end web server rule (trade-off: breaks intended self-registration flows if used), placing a WAF such as ModSecurity with the OWASP CRS in front of the application to block SQLi payloads (trade-off: signature-based, can be bypassed by encoding/obfuscation), and applying least-privilege to the application's database account so that even successful injection cannot DROP tables or read other databases (trade-off: requires schema/account refactoring). Track upstream at https://github.com/raisulislamg4/student_management_system_by_php/issues/4 and the VulDB entry at https://vuldb.com/vuln/367506 for any forthcoming fix.
