CVE-2025-9743
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 security flaw has been discovered in code-projects Human Resource Integrated System 1.0. Impacted is an unknown function of the file login_attendance2.php. Performing manipulation of the argument employee_id/date results in sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may 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 · moderate confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in login_attendance2.php of Human Resource Integrated System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the employee_id and/or date parameters without proper input sanitization, resulting in potential unauthorized database access and full system compromise.

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.
-
Locate the Human Resource Integrated System installationSearch for the login_attendance2.php file in the web server's document root or application directories. Common paths may include /hris/, /hrsystem/, or the root web directory. Use 'find /var/www -name login_attendance2.php' or similar file search commands.Affected if The file login_attendance2.php exists in the web-accessible directory and the application is Code Projects HRIS version 1.0
-
Verify the application versionCheck the application for a version identifier. This may be in a README file, version.php, or in the source code comments. Compare your installed version to version 1.0.Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0 of the Code Projects Human Resource Integrated System
-
Confirm the vulnerable file is web-accessibleAttempt to access login_attendance2.php via HTTP/HTTPS request to confirm it is reachable. For example: curl -I http://TARGET/login_attendance2.phpAffected if The file returns an HTTP 200 response and is accessible over the network
-
Identify if the vulnerable parameters are exposedReview the login_attendance2.php source code to confirm it accepts employee_id and/or date parameters without proper sanitization. Look for SQL query construction using these parameters.Affected if The file contains unsanitized SQL queries using $_GET or $_POST for employee_id or date parameters
-
Check for existing access logs or signs of exploitationReview web server access logs for unusual requests to login_attendance2.php containing SQL injection patterns (e.g., UNION SELECT, OR 1=1, time-based blind SQLi payloads). Search logs for 'login_attendance2.php' and examine parameter values.Affected if Logs show suspicious SQL injection payloads in employee_id or date parameters to login_attendance2.php
A user is affected if they have Code Projects Human Resource Integrated System version 1.0 with the login_attendance2.php file accessible on the network and containing unsanitized employee_id or date parameters.

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 dataImmediately restrict access to the affected login_attendance2.php file and implement parameterized queries with proper input validation for all user-supplied parameters to remediate the SQL injection; given the critical severity and public exploit availability, prioritize this fix urgently.
