How CVE-2025-4308 Works
This vulnerability exists in PHPGurukul Art Gallery Management System 1.1 due to improper input sanitization in the `arttype` parameter within /admin/add-art-type.php. Attackers can craft malicious SQL queries through this parameter, leading to unauthorized database access. The system fails to validate user-supplied data before concatenating it into SQL statements, enabling classic SQL injection. Remote exploitation is possible without authentication, allowing data theft, modification, or deletion. The public disclosure increases attack likelihood as exploit scripts circulate rapidly among threat actors.
