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

SQL injection vulnerability in the Online Appointment Booking System 1.0's /get_town.php file allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the countryid parameter. The attack requires no authentication and can lead to complete database compromise. Other parameters in the application may also be vulnerable.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with prepared statements/parameterized queries in get_town.php and all other affected files. Conduct a comprehensive code audit to identify and remediate additional SQL injection points across the application.

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. Confirm product installation
    Look for the Online Appointment Booking System application in your web server's document root. Check for directories containing 'appointment', 'booking', or similar naming patterns.
    Affected if The Anisha Online Appointment Booking System is installed on the server.
  2. Identify application version
    Check for a version file, readme.txt, or any file containing version information within the application directory. Common paths include /includes/config.php or the root directory.
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0.
  3. Locate vulnerable file
    Search for the file get_town.php in the web application directory structure. This file is typically in the root or an admin/includes folder.
    Affected if The file get_town.php exists in the application.
  4. Check for SQL injection exposure
    Examine the get_town.php source code and look for SQL queries that incorporate the 'countryid' parameter without proper sanitization or parameterized queries.
    Affected if The code directly uses the countryid parameter in SQL queries without prepared statements.
  5. Verify parameter accessibility
    Test accessing get_town.php directly via HTTP with a countryid parameter (e.g., ?countryid=1) to confirm the endpoint is accessible without authentication.
    Affected if The endpoint is reachable without authentication and processes the countryid parameter.

If the Online Appointment Booking System version 1.0 is installed with the get_town.php file accessible and using unsanitized countryid parameter in SQL queries, the environment is vulnerable to CVE-2025-7541.
