  • •Two critical SQL injection vulnerabilities found in Events Management System.
  • •Unauthenticated access allows mass updates and deletions of database records.
  • •CVSS score of 9.1 indicates urgent need for remediation.

Two critical SQL injection vulnerabilities have been identified in the Events Management System. The first, in doedit.php, allows unauthenticated attackers to execute mass updates on all registrations by injecting SQL commands, effectively altering every record in the database. The second vulnerability, in dodelete.php, permits attackers to delete the entire symbols table using a tautological payload without authentication. Both vulnerabilities stem from improper input handling and lack of authentication checks. The flaws were reproduced in a test environment, demonstrating their severity with significant impacts, including data loss and potential service downtime. The vulnerabilities have been assigned a CVSS score of 9.1, categorizing them as critical. Immediate action is required to mitigate these risks.
