code-projects Community Project Scholars Tracking System 1.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection in the admin user management endpoints /admin/save_user.php and /admin/update_user.php. These endpoints lack authentication checks and directly concatenate user-supplied POST parameters (firstname, lastname, username, password, user_id) into SQL queries without validation or parameterization.
