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 confidence

A critical SQL injection vulnerability exists in the login.php file of PHP-MYSQL-User-Login-System 1.0. The email parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code. The exploit is publicly available, increasing urgency for remediation.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries (prepared statements) using PDO or mysqli, ensuring all user input is treated as data rather than SQL code. Validate and sanitize the email parameter as a secondary defense layer.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the login.php file
    Search the web server document root for a file named 'login.php' from a PHP-MYSQL-User-Login-System. Common paths include /var/www/html/, /www/, or the application's root directory.
    Affected if The login.php file from Keerti1924 Php Mysql User Signup Login System version 1.0 is found on the server
  2. Verify the product version
    Check for a version.php, README, or any version indicator in the application directory. Compare against the affected version: 1.0
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0 of Keerti1924 Php Mysql User Signup Login System
  3. Inspect the email parameter handling in login.php
    Open login.php and locate the code handling the 'email' POST or GET parameter. Look for how this parameter is retrieved and used in SQL queries.
    Affected if The email parameter is used directly in SQL queries without apparent sanitization or parameterization
  4. Check for unsafe SQL query construction
    Search in login.php for SQL query strings (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) that concatenate the email variable directly, for example: "SELECT * FROM users WHERE email='" . $email . "'". Also check for mysql_query or mysqli_query calls where the email variable is embedded in the query string.
    Affected if The SQL query containing the email parameter is constructed using string concatenation or interpolation rather than prepared statements or parameter binding

You are affected if you have Keerti1924 Php Mysql User Signup Login System version 1.0 installed with a login.php file that uses direct string concatenation for the email parameter in SQL queries.
