The injection can lead to unauthenticated compromise of the underlying database, exposing sensitive data or altering records, thereby violating confidentiality, integrity, and potentially availability. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-74 and CWE-89.
Affected Systems
The vulnerability affects SourceCodester Simple CRUD using PHP and FPDF version 1.0, specifically the register.php component of the application. No other products or versions are listed as affected.
