CVE-2026-2057
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 vulnerability was detected in SourceCodester Medical Center Portal Management System 1.0. This affects an unknown function of the file /login.php. The manipulation of the argument User results in sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit is now 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 confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in SourceCodester Medical Center Portal Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code through the User parameter in /login.php. The lack of proper input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the system and sensitive medical data.

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 the Medical Center Portal installation and versionLocate the application root directory and check for version indicators such as a version file, header comments in source files, or the application About/Info page. Common paths may include /var/www/html/ or similar web root directories.Affected if The installed application is Bontrofftech Medical Center Portal Management System version 1.0
-
Verify the presence of the vulnerable login.php fileCheck if the file /login.php exists in the web root. This can be done by examining the file system directly or attempting to access the URL path /login.php via HTTP request.Affected if The file login.php exists and is accessible via the web server
-
Confirm the application is accepting User parameter input on the login pageReview the login.php source code to identify if the User parameter from the login form is being used in a SQL query without proper parameterization. Check the HTTP request handling for the username field.Affected if The login.php processes a User parameter in a dynamic SQL query without using prepared statements or proper escaping
-
Determine if the application database is exposedVerify the database configuration file exists and check network accessibility of the database server. This may involve checking config.php or similar configuration files for database credentials and connection details.Affected if The application connects to a database and is accessible over the network, allowing potential SQL injection attacks
A user is affected if they are running Bontrofftech Medical Center Portal Management System version 1.0 with the login.php file accessible and the User parameter processed through unsanitized SQL queries.

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 prepared statements/parameterized queries in login.php, or implement robust input validation and escaping for the User argument. Additionally, apply the principle of least privilege to the database account used by the application.
