Check if Vulnerable:
Test if SQL injection is possible by sending crafted editid parameter to /admin/edit-subjects-detail.php
Check Version:
Check application version in admin panel or configuration files
Verify Fix Applied:
Test that SQL injection attempts no longer succeed and return proper error handling
📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Unusual SQL queries in database logs
- Multiple failed login attempts to admin interface
- Requests to /admin/edit-subjects-detail.php with suspicious editid values
Network Indicators:
- HTTP POST requests to edit-subjects-detail.php containing SQL keywords in parameters
