CVE-2025-14623
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA weakness has been identified in code-projects Student File Management System 1.0. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /admin/update_student.php. This manipulation of the argument stud_id causes sql injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be exploited.
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 the Student File Management System 1.0's /admin/update_student.php file allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the stud_id parameter. The lack of input sanitization or parameterized queries enables unauthenticated attackers to potentially access, modify, or delete database contents.

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.
-
Identify if Fabian Student File Management System is installedSearch the web server document root for files named 'update_student.php' or look for application directories containing 'student' and 'file management' in their paths.Affected if The application files exist on the system.
-
Confirm the installed versionLocate any version file, README, or changelog in the application directory that displays the version number.Affected if The version is 1.0 exactly.
-
Verify the vulnerable file existsCheck for the presence of /admin/update_student.php in the web server directory.Affected if The file /admin/update_student.php exists on the server.
-
Determine if application is network accessibleVerify the web server is running and the /admin/ endpoint is reachable from remote locations or the internet.Affected if The application admin interface is accessible over the network.
-
Inspect the vulnerable code for SQL injectionReview the source code of update_student.php and locate the SQL query handling the stud_id parameter. Check if the query uses direct string concatenation rather than prepared statements or parameter binding.Affected if The stud_id parameter is used directly in an SQL query without sanitization or parameterized queries.
If the Fabian Student File Management System version 1.0 is installed with the /admin/update_student.php file present and network-accessible, and the code shows the stud_id parameter is not sanitized or parameterized, the environment is affected by this SQL injection vulnerability.

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 dataReplace direct SQL query construction with prepared statements/parameterized queries in update_student.php, and conduct a security audit of the entire application for similar SQL injection vulnerabilities.
