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 · unedited
A vulnerability was found in code-projects Intern Membership Management System 1.0. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown part of the file /student_login.php. The manipulation of the argument user_name/password leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

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 Intern Membership Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the user_name and password parameters in /student_login.php. The lack of proper input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to bypass authentication or exfiltrate database contents.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with prepared statements/parameterized queries in student_login.php, implement input validation, and apply principle of least privilege to database accounts. Conduct full codebase audit for additional SQL injection points.

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. Identify the installed application version
    Locate and inspect any version files, README files, or admin panels within the web application directory that indicate the software version. Check the source code for version comments or the main entry point for version information.
    Affected if The installed version is Carmelo Intern Membership Management System 1.0
  2. Verify the presence of student_login.php
    Search the web root directory for the file student_login.php. This file is typically located in the application's main web directory.
    Affected if The file student_login.php exists in the web application directory
  3. Examine the login processing code
    Open student_login.php and review the code handling the user_name and password parameters. Look for SQL query construction that directly incorporates these parameters without using prepared statements or parameter binding.
    Affected if The code constructs SQL queries using user-supplied input from user_name or password without parameterized queries or input sanitization
  4. Confirm database interaction method
    Review how the application connects to the database and executes queries. Check if database functions used (such as mysqli_query, mysql_query, PDO query, or similar) are called with string concatenation or interpolation of user inputs.
    Affected if User inputs are concatenated directly into SQL query strings before execution
  5. Test the login endpoint for injection response
    If the application is accessible, observe the response when submitting special SQL characters (such as single quotes) in the user_name or password fields. Compare the response behavior to normal login attempts.
    Affected if The application returns database error messages or exhibits unexpected behavior when SQL special characters are submitted

A defender is affected if they are running Carmelo Intern Membership Management System version 1.0 and the student_login.php file contains SQL queries built with direct string concatenation of user_name and password parameters.

Mitigation

Replace dynamic SQL queries with prepared statements/parameterized queries in student_login.php, implement input validation, and apply principle of least privilege to database accounts. Conduct full codebase audit for additional SQL injection points.
