🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test /expedit.php with SQL injection payloads in expcat parameter: ' OR '1'='1Check Version:
Check system documentation or admin panel for version informationVerify Fix Applied:
Test with same payloads and verify no SQL errors or unexpected behavior occurs📡 Detection & Monitoring
