| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 base score of 5.5 reflects low impact ratings across confidentiality, integrity, and availability (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L) on the vulnerable component, with no downstream system impact (SC:N/SI:N/SA:N). However, this score understates practical risk in the healthcare context: the attack vector is fully network-accessible (AV:N), requires no complexity (AC:L), no prerequisites (AT:N), no privileges (PR:N), and no user interaction (UI:N), placing it in the most accessible threat tier for remote exploitation. The CVSS E:P modifier confirms proof-of-concept exploit code is publicly available, referenced via a GitHub issue. EPSS data was not provided, so exploitation probability cannot be quantified numerically. KEV status is negative - active exploitation by threat actors has not been confirmed by CISA. The combination of unauthenticated remote access, a public POC, and a healthcare patient records target makes this a meaningful priority for any organization running this system, even if the raw CVSS score appears moderate. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jun 08, 2026
SQL injection in SourceCodester Hospitals Patient Records Management System 1.0 exposes sensitive patient data to remote, unauthenticated attackers via the ID parameter in the /classes/Master.php?f=save_patient endpoint. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) confirms no authentication, attack prerequisites, or user interaction are required, making this trivially exploitable from the network. A publicly available exploit exists (CVSS E:P), elevating real-world risk beyond what the moderate base score of 5.5 suggests; no public exploit identified at time of analysis rises to KEV level, but the POC lowers the barrier for opportunistic attackers targeting healthcare data.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis. The primary remediation is to replace direct string concatenation in SQL queries with parameterized queries or prepared statements in /classes/Master.php, specifically within the save_patient function - this eliminates the injection vector at the root cause. As a compensating control, deploying a Web Application Firewall (WAF) with SQL injection detection rules can block or alert on exploit attempts targeting the ID parameter, though WAF bypass is possible for motivated attackers. Input validation enforcing that the ID field accepts only expected data types (e.g., integer-only values) reduces the attack surface but is not a substitute for parameterized queries. Restricting network access to the application's web interface to trusted IP ranges or internal networks limits exposure to remote attackers, at the cost of reduced accessibility. Organizations should monitor VulDB (https://vuldb.com/cve/CVE-2026-11501) and the SourceCodester site for vendor patch releases.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected application is a PHP-based web application (tagged PHP, SQLi) built by SourceCodester, identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:sourcecodester:hospitals_patient_records_management_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*. The vulnerability class is CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command), meaning user-supplied input - specifically the ID argument passed to the save_patient function in /classes/Master.php - is concatenated directly into a SQL query without parameterization or sufficient sanitization. This is a classic unsanitized parameter injection pattern common in low-code PHP CRUD applications. Because the CPE uses a wildcard version match (*), all available versions of the system are presumed affected.
