A vulnerability has been found in SourceCodester Employee Task Management System 1.0 and classified as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file update-employee.php. The manipulation of the argument admin_id leads to sql injection. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier VDB-257053 was assigned to this vulnerability.
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
