How CVE-2025-3314 Works
The vulnerability exists in the `/forgotpw.php` file of SourceCodester Apartment Visitor Management System 1.0 due to improper sanitization of the `secode` parameter. Attackers can manipulate this parameter to inject malicious SQL queries, leading to unauthorized database access. The flaw allows remote exploitation without authentication (CVSS 4.0: 6.9 MEDIUM). By crafting a specially crafted HTTP request, an attacker can extract sensitive data, modify database content, or execute administrative operations. The public disclosure of this exploit increases the risk of widespread attacks.
