CVE-2026-71207: Stock-Inventory-Management-System: Unauthenticated SQL Injection and Hardcoded Credentials in login.php Enable Full Authentication Bypass
The Stock-Inventory-Management-System application's login.php assigns raw $POST username/password values to $SESSION and builds its authentication query by directly concatenating those session values into a SQL statement with no parameterization or escaping. An unauthenticated remote attacker can submit a payload such as ' OR '1'='1 in the login form to bypass authentication entirely. The same script additionally contains hardcoded administrative credentials (admin/neola) in a post-login conditional check, providing a second, independent full-authentication-bypass path.
Affected Software
Remediation
Recommended actions to resolve this vulnerability, in priority order.
- Configuration
Modify login.php to stop building the SQL authentication query by directly concatenating raw $_POST (or $_SESSION) username/password values; use parameterized queries/prepared statements so payloads like ' OR '1'='1 cannot alter the WHERE clause.
Stock-Inventory-Management-System (login.php) Authentication query construction = Use parameterized SQL (prepared statements) instead of concatenating $_SESSION/$_POST values into SQL - Configuration
In login.php, remove the post-login conditional that contains hardcoded administrative credentials (admin/neola) that grants access based on submitted values; replace it with proper server-side role/authorization checks backed by the actual user record.
Stock-Inventory-Management-System (login.php) Hardcoded administrative credentials check = Remove hardcoded admin credentials (admin/neola) conditional bypass and validate admin role via proper authorization
