CWE ID Description
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.
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.

Executive Summary

CVE-2026-7028 is a SQL Injection vulnerability in the CodeAstro Online Job Portal version 1.0. It exists in the admin job deletion feature at the endpoint /admin/jobs-admins/delete-jobs.php, specifically in the id parameter passed via a GET request.

The id parameter is used directly in an SQL query without proper validation or parameter binding, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code.

An authenticated attacker can manipulate this parameter to alter the SQL query logic, for example, by sending a request that causes the query condition to always be true, resulting in the deletion of all job records instead of a single targeted entry.

This vulnerability is due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command (CWE-89), indicating a lack of input sanitization and parameterized queries.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to perform a mass deletion of all job postings in the database by exploiting the SQL Injection flaw.

The impact is severe as it can lead to complete data loss of all job records, causing significant disruption of service on the affected job portal.

Detection Guidance

This vulnerability can be detected by testing the SQL injection flaw in the `id` parameter of the endpoint `/admin/jobs-admins/delete-jobs.php` in the CodeAstro Online Job Portal admin panel.

An authenticated user can attempt to exploit the vulnerability by sending a crafted GET request that manipulates the `id` parameter to check for SQL injection.

  • Example command to test the vulnerability: `GET /admin/jobs-admins/delete-jobs.php?id=48' OR '1'='1`

If the request causes unexpected behavior such as deletion of multiple or all job records, it confirms the presence of the SQL injection vulnerability.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediate mitigation steps include restricting access to the vulnerable endpoint to only trusted and authenticated administrators.

Avoid using unsanitized input directly in SQL queries. Implement parameterized queries or prepared statements to prevent SQL injection.

Monitor and audit admin actions to detect any suspicious activity related to job deletions.

If possible, apply patches or updates from the vendor that address this vulnerability.

Compliance Impact

The vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to perform SQL injection that can lead to the deletion of all job records in the database, causing significant data loss and disruption of service.

Such data loss and potential unauthorized manipulation of data could negatively impact compliance with standards and regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which require the protection, integrity, and availability of personal and sensitive data.

However, the provided information does not specify whether personal or sensitive data is affected, nor does it explicitly link the vulnerability to compliance violations.
