Who should care

Organizations running code-projects Online Hospital Management System; healthcare IT administrators; web application security teams; vulnerability management programs tracking public disclosures

Technical summary

The vulnerability is a classic SQL injection in a PHP authentication routine. The `login_user` function in `login_1.php` accepts a `Username` parameter that is concatenated directly into a SQL query without proper sanitization or parameterization. This allows an attacker to alter query logic, potentially bypassing authentication, extracting data, or modifying database contents. The attack is remotely exploitable without authentication.

Defensive priority

medium

Recommended defensive actions

Apply input validation and parameterized queries (prepared statements) to the Username parameter in login_1.php
Implement least-privilege database access for the application
Monitor web application logs for anomalous authentication requests and SQL error patterns
Review the GitHub advisory and VulDB technical references for patch guidance
Consider web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect SQL injection payloads in login requests

Evidence notes

VulDB CNA submission and advisory references confirm the vulnerability location in login_1.php and the affected parameter. The GitHub reference indicates published technical details. NVD status is 'Received' as of the published date. Vendor identification is low-confidence based on reference domain candidate 'Code Projects'.
