| Titel | SourceCodester Onlne Examination & Learning Management System using PHP and MySQL 0 Use of Hard-coded Password |
|---|
| Beschreibung | During the assessment of this project (Onlne Examination & Learning Management System using PHP and MySQL), it was observed that the application has a hardcoded password used during the import of the users data.
This happens in "import_users.php" on line 58.
$raw_password = (!empty($data[10])) ? $data[10] : "CICT_2026"; // VULNERABLE
Ideally, the password should be encrypted or moved to .env (not pushed to PROD) or secure the password within the database called by the Application during the runtime. |
