Security Summary

CVE-2025-1902 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-89) affecting PHPGurukul Student Record System version 3.2. The flaw exists in unknown code within the /password-recovery.php file, where manipulation of the 'emailid' argument enables SQL injection. Published on 2025-03-04, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely by unauthenticated attackers with network access and low complexity requirements. By injecting malicious SQL payloads via the 'emailid' parameter during password recovery requests, attackers can achieve limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.

Advisories and references, including VulDB entries (ctiid.298420, id.298420, submit.506623), a GitHub code audit at panghuanjie/Code-audits/issues/3, and the vendor site phpgurukul.com, document the issue. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used by attackers.

In notable context, the public availability of the exploit increases the risk of immediate exploitation against unpatched instances of this student record management system.
