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.
-
Verify PHPGurukul Park Ticketing Management System 2.0 is installedLocate the application web root directory and check for typical park ticketing system files such as index.php, login.php, or admin dashboard files. Look for version identifiers in source code comments, README files, or configuration files.Affected if The application is found and appears to be version 2.0 of PHPGurukul Park Ticketing Management System
-
Confirm foreigner-search.php existsCheck if the file foreigner-search.php exists within the web application directory structure, typically in the root or a public-facing folder.Affected if The file foreigner-search.php is present in the application
-
Inspect searchdata parameter handlingOpen foreigner-search.php in a text editor and search for the searchdata parameter. Verify if it is used directly in SQL queries without proper sanitization, prepared statements, or parameterized queries.Affected if The searchdata parameter is used in SQL queries without sanitization or prepared statements
-
Check if application is accessibleVerify the foreigner-search.php page is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS requests to the web server. Attempt to access the page directly through a browser or curl command.Affected if The foreigner-search.php page is publicly or internally accessible
-
Verify database user privilegesIf exploitation is suspected, review database configuration to determine if the application database user has excessive privileges beyond what is required.Affected if The database user has administrative or elevated privileges that could be exploited

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 dynamic SQL queries with parameterized statements/prepared statements in foreigner-search.php and implement proper input validation for the searchdata parameter. Apply vendor patch when available.
