CVE-2026-2060 Overview
A SQL Injection vulnerability has been identified in code-projects Simple Blood Donor Management System version 1.0. The vulnerability exists in an unknown functionality of the file /simpleblooddonor/editcampaignform.php. By manipulating the ID argument, an attacker can perform SQL injection attacks. This vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the network, and exploit details have been made publicly available.
Critical Impact
This SQL Injection vulnerability allows unauthenticated remote attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion of sensitive blood donor information.

Technical Details for CVE-2026-2060
Vulnerability Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command - SQL Injection) and CWE-74 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component - Injection). The vulnerable endpoint is located at /simpleblooddonor/editcampaignform.php, which accepts an ID parameter that is not properly sanitized before being incorporated into SQL queries.
The attack can be initiated remotely without requiring authentication, meaning any external attacker with network access to the application can exploit this vulnerability. The exploitation is straightforward due to the lack of input validation on the ID parameter.
Root Cause
The root cause of this vulnerability is improper input validation and lack of parameterized queries in the editcampaignform.php file. When user-supplied data from the ID parameter is directly concatenated into SQL statements without proper sanitization or the use of prepared statements, it creates an injection point that attackers can leverage to execute arbitrary SQL commands.
Attack Vector
The attack vector is network-based, allowing remote exploitation without any user interaction or special privileges. An attacker can craft malicious HTTP requests to the vulnerable endpoint, injecting SQL syntax through the ID parameter. The vulnerability allows for partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected system.
The exploitation technique involves sending specially crafted requests to the editcampaignform.php endpoint with malicious SQL payloads in the ID parameter. Attackers may leverage techniques such as UNION-based injection, boolean-based blind injection, or time-based blind injection to extract sensitive data from the database.

Detection Methods for CVE-2026-2060
Indicators of Compromise
- Unusual SQL error messages in application logs or HTTP responses from /simpleblooddonor/editcampaignform.php
- Unexpected database query patterns or execution of system-level commands through the database
- Access logs showing requests to editcampaignform.php with abnormal ID parameter values containing SQL syntax
Detection Strategies
- Deploy Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns in the ID parameter
- Implement database activity monitoring to detect anomalous queries originating from the application
- Configure intrusion detection systems (IDS) to alert on common SQL injection signatures targeting the affected endpoint
Monitoring Recommendations
- Monitor HTTP access logs for requests containing SQL keywords (UNION, SELECT, INSERT, DROP, etc.) in URL parameters
- Enable detailed database logging to track query execution patterns and identify injection attempts
- Set up alerting for multiple failed or malformed queries from the application server
How to Mitigate CVE-2026-2060
Immediate Actions Required
- Restrict network access to the affected application until a patch can be applied
- Implement input validation on the ID parameter to accept only numeric values
- Deploy WAF rules specifically targeting the /simpleblooddonor/editcampaignform.php endpoint
- Review database user permissions and apply principle of least privilege
Patch Information
No official patch has been released by the vendor at this time. Organizations using Simple Blood Donor Management System 1.0 should contact Code Projects for updates or consider applying the recommended workarounds. Additional technical details are available in the VulDB entry #344620.
Workarounds
- Implement parameterized queries or prepared statements in the editcampaignform.php file to prevent SQL injection
- Add server-side input validation to ensure the ID parameter contains only expected numeric values
- Deploy a reverse proxy or WAF in front of the application to filter malicious requests
- Consider temporarily disabling the campaign edit functionality if it is not business-critical
# Example: Apache mod_rewrite rule to block suspicious ID parameters
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (\%27|\'|\"|union|select|insert|drop|update|delete|concat|load_file) [NC]
RewriteRule ^/simpleblooddonor/editcampaignform\.php$ - [F,L]
