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-2026-95926 is a SQL injection vulnerability in Online Reviewer Management System 1.0. It exists in the file /reviewer_0/admins/assessments/pretest/btn_functions.php when the action=update parameter is used. The vulnerability occurs due to insufficient input validation of the test_id parameter, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries into the database.

Detection Guidance

To detect SQL injection vulnerabilities like CVE-2026-95926, monitor web server logs for suspicious requests targeting /reviewer_0/admins/assessments/pretest/btn_functions.php with parameters like action=update and test_id values containing SQL syntax such as quotes or semicolons. Use tools like SQLmap to test for injection by sending payloads like ' OR 1=1 -- to the test_id parameter.

  • Check web server access logs for unusual patterns or error messages indicating SQL syntax issues.
  • Use automated scanners like OWASP ZAP or Burp Suite to probe the application for SQL injection flaws.
Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute unauthorized SQL commands. Potential impacts include unauthorized access to sensitive data, data manipulation or deletion, complete system compromise without authentication, database breaches, and service disruption.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability likely violates compliance requirements for GDPR and HIPAA due to unauthorized data access and potential data breaches. It compromises data confidentiality and integrity, which are core requirements for these regulations.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update the affected file /reviewer_0/admins/assessments/pretest/btn_functions.php to use prepared statements with parameter binding for the test_id input. Validate all user inputs strictly to reject any SQL syntax characters. Restrict database user permissions to the minimum required for operation.

  • Apply input validation to sanitize the test_id parameter, blocking special characters like quotes or semicolons.
  • Conduct a security audit to identify and fix similar vulnerabilities in other parts of the application.
