How the CVE Works
The CVE-2025-2984 vulnerability exists in Payroll Management System 1.0 due to improper input sanitization in the `/delete.php` file. The `emp_id` parameter is directly concatenated into an SQL query without validation, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL commands. This flaw enables unauthorized database access, data manipulation, or deletion. The attack can be executed remotely without authentication, making it critical. Exploiting this vulnerability involves crafting a malicious `emp_id` value containing SQL payloads, such as 1; DROP TABLE employees--
, leading to arbitrary SQL execution.
