Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in PHPGurukul Medical Card Generation System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the 'editid' parameter in /admin/edit-card-detail.php. The Managecard Edit Card Detail Page fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in database queries.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Confirm PHPGurukul Medical Card Generation System is installedLook for the application in your web root directory. Search for files matching 'medical-card' or 'Medical Card' in your web server's document root.Affected if The application directory or files related to Medical Card Generation System are present on the server
-
Verify the installed version is 1.0Check for version indicators such as a version.php file, a CHANGELOG or README file within the application, or the meta information in the main entry point. Compare your version against the affected range.Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0
-
Locate the vulnerable scriptCheck if the file /admin/edit-card-detail.php exists in your web application directory.Affected if The file edit-card-detail.php exists in the /admin/ directory of the application
-
Confirm the application is network accessibleDetermine if the web application is reachable over the network by attempting to access the admin login page or the vulnerable endpoint.Affected if The application is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS from network locations
-
Identify if the editid parameter is acceptedReview the source code of edit-card-detail.php to confirm it accepts an 'editid' GET or POST parameter and uses it in database queries without proper sanitization.Affected if The script accepts an 'editid' parameter and incorporates it directly into SQL queries without prepared statements or input validation
You are affected if PHPGurukul Medical Card Generation System version 1.0 is installed and the edit-card-detail.php file is accessible with the editid parameter handling present.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement prepared statements or parameterized queries for all database operations, particularly for the editid parameter in edit-card-detail.php. Apply input validation and output encoding as defense-in-depth.
