The manipulation leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly 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 the login component (chk.php) of code-projects Project Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands via unsanitized input in the login functionality.

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 Project Management System installationSearch the web server document root for files belonging to 'code-projects Project Management System', typically under /var/www/html or C:\inetpub\wwwroot on Windows serversAffected if The application is found on the system
-
Verify chk.php exists in the login componentCheck for the presence of chk.php in the application's directory structure, commonly found in the root or admin folderAffected if chk.php file is present in the installation
-
Determine the installed versionReview any version file, README, or the application's header/footer for a version string indicating '1.0'Affected if The installed version is 1.0
-
Inspect chk.php for SQL injection vulnerabilityOpen chk.php and examine the login query logic - look for direct concatenation of user input ($_POST or $_GET variables) into SQL statements without using prepared statements or parameter bindingAffected if The code builds SQL queries by directly inserting $_POST['username'] or $_POST['password'] variables into the query string without sanitization or parameterization
-
Verify the login page is network-accessibleConfirm the login page (typically index.php or the page calling chk.php) is accessible over HTTP/HTTPS from a client browser or via curl commandAffected if The login interface is exposed to network users
A user is affected if code-projects Project Management System version 1.0 is installed with the chk.php login component containing direct SQL query construction from user input.

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 or prepared statements in chk.php to sanitize user input before database execution.
