CVE-2026-112141 in Events-Management-System
Summary
by MITRE • 10/19/2026
A vulnerability was determined in satya-vinay Events-Management-System up to 437c77ceb69bf9fe2e3f4f46f7871b83f425383a. Affected is the function mysqli_query of the file doedit.php of the component Registration-Edit Handler. This manipulation of the argument id/name/title/year/gender/fromdate/todate/people causes sql injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. This product follows a rolling release approach for continuous delivery, so version details for affected or updated releases are not provided. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

The satya-vinay Events-Management-System contains a critical SQL injection vulnerability within its Registration-Edit Handler component, specifically located in the doedit.php file. This flaw affects versions up to commit 437c77ceb69bf9fe2e3f4f46f7871b83f425383a and stems from improper input validation when handling user-supplied data for event registration details such as id, name, title, year, gender, start date, end date, and attendee count. The vulnerability arises because the application directly concatenates these unvalidated parameters into SQL query strings executed via the mysqli_query function without employing parameterized queries or sufficient sanitization mechanisms. This architectural weakness allows an attacker to inject malicious SQL code that can alter database operations, bypass authentication controls, or extract sensitive information from the underlying database structure.
From a technical perspective, this vulnerability is classified under CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command, commonly known as SQL Injection. The lack of input validation on multiple fields within the registration editing interface creates a broad attack surface that can be exploited remotely by any authenticated or unauthenticated user depending on the specific access controls implemented around the doedit.php endpoint. Since the exploit has been publicly disclosed and is actively utilized in the wild, immediate remediation is required to prevent unauthorized data manipulation or exfiltration. The rolling release model of this project complicates version tracking but does not mitigate the severity of the underlying code defect which persists across all affected builds until explicitly patched by developers who have yet to respond to early issue reports.
The operational impact of exploiting this SQL injection can be severe, ranging from complete database compromise to unauthorized modification or deletion of event registration records and user data. Attackers leveraging ATT&CK technique T1059: Command and Scripting Interpreter could potentially use the injected queries to execute system-level commands if the database service account has elevated privileges on the host operating system. This represents a significant risk to data integrity, confidentiality, and availability within the events management ecosystem. Organizations relying on this software must assume that all instances running unpatched versions are actively vulnerable to remote exploitation until verified otherwise through security testing or vendor confirmation of patch deployment.
Mitigation strategies should prioritize immediate implementation of parameterized queries using prepared statements with bound variables for all database interactions involving user input, particularly within the doedit.php script. Input validation must be enforced at both the client and server sides to ensure that only expected data formats are processed by the application logic. Additionally, deploying a Web Application Firewall can provide temporary protection against known SQL injection patterns while permanent code fixes are developed. Given the project’s rolling release nature, administrators should monitor official channels for updates closely and consider isolating affected instances from public-facing networks until patches are available to reduce exposure to active exploitation campaigns targeting this specific vulnerability vector.
