Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-74 | The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component. |
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'CVE-2026-3151 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability found in the itsourcecode College Management System version 1.0, specifically in the /login/login.php file.'}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'The vulnerability arises from improper handling of the "email" parameter, which allows an attacker to manipulate the SQL query due to insufficient input sanitization or neutralization of special characters.'}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'This flaw corresponds to CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) and allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to execute SQL injection attacks.'}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'Exploitation requires no authentication and can be performed remotely, making it straightforward and easy to exploit.'}] [1, 2, 3]
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can severely impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
- Attackers can gain unauthorized access to the database.
- Sensitive data leakage may occur.
- Data tampering or unauthorized modification of information is possible.
- Attackers may achieve full system control.
- Service disruption or denial of service can result from exploitation.

I don't know
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
[{'type': 'paragraph', 'content': "This SQL injection vulnerability can be detected by testing the 'email' parameter in the /login/login.php file for improper input sanitization. One practical method is to perform a time-based blind SQL injection test using a payload that induces a delay, such as: email=1' AND (SELECT 4509 FROM (SELECT(SLEEP(5)))VgsF) AND 'IHGV'='IHGV."}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'Tools like sqlmap can be used to automate detection by targeting the vulnerable parameter with crafted SQL injection payloads.'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Example sqlmap command: sqlmap -u "http://target/login/login.php" --data="email=1&password=1&btnlogin=LOGIN" --risk=3 --level=5 --technique=BEUSTQ'}, {'type': 'list_item', 'content': 'Manual test example using curl with a time delay payload: curl -X POST -d "email=1\' AND (SELECT SLEEP(5))-- &password=any&btnlogin=LOGIN" http://target/login/login.php'}, {'type': 'paragraph', 'content': 'Additionally, vulnerable targets can be identified using Google dorking techniques such as searching for inurl:login/login.php to find instances of the affected application.'}] [1, 3]
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include implementing prepared statements with parameter binding to separate SQL code from user input, preventing SQL injection.
Strict input validation and filtering should be applied to ensure that inputs conform to expected formats.
Minimize database user permissions by avoiding the use of high-privilege accounts for routine database operations.
Conduct regular security audits to detect and remediate vulnerabilities promptly.
Since no known countermeasures are officially reported, it is recommended to replace the affected product with an alternative solution if possible.
