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 requires network reachability to the application's admin/delete1.php endpoint, which the CVSS vector treats as unauthenticated (PR:N) despite its location under the admin/ directory - the description labels it an 'Unauthenticated Action Script'. The attacker only needs to supply a manipulated ID request parameter; no user interaction, no special privileges, and no non-default configuration are required. Practical limiting factors are the product's rarity (very few live deployments) and the need for the vulnerable delete1.php endpoint to be internet-exposed. No patched release exists (rolling-release project, vendor unresponsive), so any running instance is affected. |
| Impact | Signals point to a genuine but low-footprint issue. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) describes an unauthenticated, network-reachable, low-complexity SQL injection - the easiest possible exploitation profile - and the E:P (Proof-of-Concept) exploit maturity is corroborated by a publicly posted GitHub issue, so publicly available exploit code exists. However, this is NOT the same as active exploitation: there is no CISA KEV listing and no EPSS score provided, so widespread or automated in-the-wild abuse is not evidenced. The vendor-assigned score of 6.9 rests on VC:L/VI:L/VA:L (all low impacts), which likely understates a classic mysqli_query injection that typically permits full database read; the true confidentiality impact is probably higher than the vendor rating. The dominant risk-limiting factor is prevalence, not exploitability: this is an obscure open-source hobby project, so despite an easy unauthenticated exploit, real-world exposure is small. Net assessment: technically easy and exploit-public, but low operational priority for most defenders due to negligible deployment footprint. Note the component label 'Unauthenticated Action Script' plus the admin/ path is slightly contradictory - the file lives under admin/ yet is described as unauthenticated; the CVSS PR:N supports unauthenticated reachability, but verify the auth boundary against the source if this product is in use. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A remote unauthenticated attacker sends a crafted HTTP request to admin/delete1.php with a malicious ID parameter (e.g., a UNION-based or boolean/time-based payload) that is concatenated into a mysqli_query call. This lets them read or manipulate the backend MySQL database without credentials. A public proof-of-concept is already available via the project's GitHub issue tracker (issue #5), lowering the skill barrier. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Sep 30, 2026
SQL injection in the AdithyaYelloju Restaurant-Management-System allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to manipulate database queries through the ID parameter of admin/delete1.php, a script the description treats as an unauthenticated action endpoint despite its location under the admin/ directory. Successful exploitation grants low-level confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the application's database, and publicly available exploit code exists, raising the likelihood of opportunistic scanning and abuse. The project is distributed via rolling releases with no versioned builds, the maintainer has not responded to the early issue report, so no vendor-released patch is available and every running instance should be considered affected; the practical risk is narrowed by the product's very low deployment footprint and the need for the endpoint to be reachable over the network.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis: the project uses rolling releases, the maintainer has not responded to the issue report at https://github.com/AdithyaYelloju/Restaurant-Management-System/issues/5, and no fixed commit or tagged version is published, so operators cannot simply upgrade to a safe release. Until upstream responds, the most effective control is to remove or disable the vulnerable endpoint: take admin/delete1.php out of service (or block it at the web server/reverse proxy) unless record-deletion functionality is actually required, accepting the loss of that administrative feature. If the endpoint must remain, restrict it to trusted administrative networks via IP allow-listing or an authenticated reverse-proxy layer in front of the admin/ directory, which trades broader exposure control for added infrastructure; enforcing authentication and a CSRF/session check on the delete flow would also break the unauthenticated attack path but requires code changes. Additionally, migrate the query to prepared statements with mysqli parameter binding so the ID argument is never concatenated into SQL, and note that WAF signatures targeting the ID parameter of admin/delete1.php can reduce opportunistic exploitation but are bypassable and should not be the sole mitigation. Because the product is rarely deployed, the most practical remediation for most organizations is to retire or replace the application rather than maintain an unpatched, internet-facing PHP service.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The affected component is a PHP web application (Restaurant-Management-System) whose administrative scripts pass user-supplied input directly into MySQL queries via the mysqli_query() function. The vulnerable sink is admin/delete1.php, where the ID request argument is concatenated into a SQL statement without parameterization or escaping, the classic CWE-89 improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command. Because the query executes with the application's database credentials, an attacker who controls the ID value can alter the statement's logic, enumerate or delete records, and potentially pivot within the backing MySQL schema. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:adithyayelloju:restaurant-management-system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms the vendor/product as AdithyaYelloju's restaurant-management-system with no version constraints, consistent with a project that ships only rolling-release commits (the description references commit 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c as the assessed state). The CVSS 4.0 vector shows AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N, i.e. remotely reachable and unauthenticated, with E:P reflecting that exploit code is public, and our independent assessment agreed on PR:N while rating confidentiality impact as High (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L).

A vulnerability was found in AdithyaYelloju Restaurant-Management-System up to 7f0e7e84255e8fcfd488e83f8f91451bbbff6b9c. This issue affects the function mysqli_query of the file admin/delete1.php of the component Unauthenticated Action Script. Performing a manipulation of the argument ID results in sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. Continious delivery with rolling releases is used by this product. Therefore, no version details of affected nor updated releases are available. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
