CVE-2026-2014 identifies a SQL injection vulnerability in the itsourcecode Student Management System version 1.0, located in the /ramonsys/billing/index.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization of the 'ID' parameter, which can be manipulated by remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code. This flaw does not require authentication or user interaction, making it remotely exploitable over the network. Exploiting this vulnerability could allow attackers to read, modify, or delete sensitive data stored in the backend database, potentially compromising student records, billing information, or other critical data managed by the system. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low complexity, and no privileges or user interaction required. Although no active exploitation has been reported, the public availability of exploit code significantly raises the threat level. The vulnerability affects only version 1.0 of the product, and no official patches or updates have been linked yet, indicating a need for immediate mitigation measures. The lack of secure coding practices in input handling is the root cause, and remediation involves implementing parameterized queries or prepared statements, input validation, and possibly upgrading to a fixed version once available.

For European organizations, particularly educational institutions using the itsourcecode Student Management System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive student and financial data. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized data disclosure, data tampering, or deletion, disrupting administrative operations and potentially violating data protection regulations such as GDPR. The exposure of personal data could result in legal penalties and reputational damage. Additionally, attackers could leverage the compromised system as a foothold for further network intrusion. The medium severity rating indicates a moderate but tangible risk, especially given the lack of authentication and user interaction requirements. The public exploit availability increases the likelihood of opportunistic attacks targeting vulnerable installations across Europe.

Organizations should immediately audit their use of the itsourcecode Student Management System version 1.0 and restrict external access to the affected billing module if possible. Implement input validation and sanitization on the 'ID' parameter to prevent injection of malicious SQL code. Refactor the code to use parameterized queries or prepared statements to eliminate SQL injection risks. Monitor logs for suspicious activity targeting the /ramonsys/billing/index.php endpoint. If available, apply vendor patches or updates promptly; if not, consider upgrading to a newer, secure version of the software. Employ web application firewalls (WAFs) with rules designed to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting this specific vulnerability. Conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate similar vulnerabilities. Finally, ensure backups of critical data are maintained and tested for recovery in case of data loss or corruption.
