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

This vulnerability is an SQL Injection flaw in the Internship Management System 1.0. The issue is in the login.php file where the Password parameter is directly used in an SQL query without sanitization. This allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code, such as time-based blind techniques, to extract sensitive data from the database.

Detection Guidance

To detect SQL injection vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-93978, test the login.php file by injecting payloads such as ' OR '1'='1' -- or using time-based techniques like sleep(10) in the Password field. Monitor server responses for delays or errors indicating successful injection.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to gain unauthorized access to the system, steal sensitive data like customer information, or manipulate the database. Since the attack can be executed remotely, it poses a significant risk to data confidentiality and integrity.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to non-compliance with GDPR and HIPAA due to unauthorized data access or breaches. GDPR requires protection of personal data, while HIPAA mandates safeguards for health-related information. A breach could result in legal penalties and reputational damage.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the login.php file to use prepared statements with parameterized queries instead of direct SQL concatenation. Validate and sanitize all user inputs, especially the Password field, to prevent SQL injection attacks.
