  • •Three critical SQL injection vulnerabilities found in unmaintained software.
  • •Unauthenticated attackers can exploit these flaws to extract sensitive data.
  • •No patches have been released, leaving systems vulnerable.

Three SQL injection vulnerabilities were discovered in the 'EmployeeRecruitmentSystem' project, affecting the registration process across three PHP files: registerform1.php, registerform2.php, and registerform3.php. Each file allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL through various POST parameters, leading to potential full database extraction. The vulnerabilities are categorized as boolean-based blind and time-based blind SQL injection. The affected files do not implement any form of input sanitization or prepared statements, making them highly exploitable. The project has been unmaintained since 2016, raising concerns about the lack of security updates. No patches or fixes have been reported, leaving systems vulnerable. The vulnerabilities are publicly disclosed as CVE-2026-059, CVE-2026-060, and CVE-2026-061.
