The vulnerability resides in the 'app/admin/departments/view_department.php' file, specifically within the handling of the 'ID' argument. An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply malicious SQL syntax through this parameter to interact directly with the underlying database. Publicly available exploit code exists, increasing the risk of active exploitation. This vulnerability allows for unauthorized data extraction, modification, or potential administrative access depending on the database configuration and application permissions. Defenders should monitor web logs for anomalous patterns in the 'ID' parameter targeting this specific file path.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"attack-chain\"\u003eAttack Chain\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker performs reconnaissance to identify instances of Simple Student Information System running in the environment.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker crafts a malicious HTTP GET or POST request targeting the 'app/admin/departments/view_department.php' endpoint.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker injects SQL syntax into the 'ID' query parameter (e.g., 'ID=1 OR 1=1').\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe vulnerable PHP script processes the unsanitized 'ID' input and includes it directly in a database query.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe backend database executes the injected SQL command.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe application returns database information, structure, or content in the HTTP response body.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAttacker extracts sensitive data from the database tables.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"impact\"\u003eImpact\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful exploitation of CVE-2026-19710 enables an attacker to perform unauthorized database operations, leading to potential data exfiltration of student or administrative records, modification of application settings, or database-level persistence.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 id=\"recommendation\"\u003eRecommendation\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) rule to block requests containing common SQL injection characters (e.g., single quotes, union, select, sleep) in the 'ID' parameter directed at 'app/admin/departments/view_department.php'.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplement the Sigma rule below to detect potential SQL injection attempts targeting the vulnerable endpoint in web server logs.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValidate if your organization uses Simple Student Information System and coordinate with IT teams to apply any available patches from the vendor or restrict external access to the administrative path.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ol\u003e\n","date_modified":"2026-08-13T16:56:42Z","date_published":"2026-08-13T16:56:42Z","id":"https://feed.craftedsignal.io/briefs/2026-08-simple-student-sqli/","summary":"An unauthenticated remote SQL injection vulnerability in SourceCodester Simple Student Information System allows attackers to execute arbitrary database commands via the 'ID' parameter in 'view_department.php'.","title":"SQL Injection Vulnerability in SourceCodester Simple Student Information System","url":"https://feed.craftedsignal.io/briefs/2026-08-simple-student-sqli/"}],"language":"en","title":"CraftedSignal Threat Feed - Simple Student Information System","version":"https://jsonfeed.org/version/1.1"}
