CVE-2026-10261
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 flaw has been found in CodeAstro Online Job Portal 1.0. This affects an unknown function of the file /users/application_status.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument ID can lead to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been published 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 · moderate confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in CodeAstro Online Job Portal 1.0 at /users/application_status.php via the ID parameter. An attacker can manipulate the ID argument to inject arbitrary SQL queries, potentially allowing unauthorized access to or manipulation of the database.

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 CodeAstro Online Job Portal installationSearch for the application_status.php file in the web root directory, typically under /users/ pathAffected if The file /users/application_status.php exists and belongs to CodeAstro Online Job Portal
-
Confirm application versionCheck for version indicators such as a version.php file, footer/header files with version info, or the application documentationAffected if The installed version is 1.0 or cannot be determined (unknown versions should be treated as vulnerable)
-
Verify the vulnerable parameter existsExamine application_status.php and locate the ID parameter handling in the code - look for $_GET['id'] or $_POST['id'] being used in SQL queriesAffected if The ID parameter is directly used in SQL queries without apparent sanitization or prepared statements
-
Check for SQL injection protectionReview the application_status.php source code for use of parameterized queries, prepared statements, or input validation functions before executing SQL with the ID parameterAffected if No prepared statements or parameterized queries are found protecting the ID parameter in SQL operations
-
Test the parameter in a safe mannerIf authorized, observe the application's response to the ID parameter by reviewing logs or performing a controlled query with a benign value like ID=1' (do not actually exploit)Affected if The application shows SQL syntax errors or unexpected behavior when processing the ID parameter, indicating unsanitized input
If CodeAstro Online Job Portal is installed with application_status.php containing the ID parameter used in raw SQL queries without prepared statements, the environment is affected by this CVE.

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 queries (prepared statements) in application_status.php. Validate and sanitize all user input before using it in database queries.
