High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The vulnerability in registration.PHP in ATutor 1.5.1 pl2 allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands by providing an email address ending with a NULL character, which bypasses the PHP regular expression check. However, this may be a bug in PHP code rather than in ATutor itself.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can gain unauthorized access to the database, steal or modify user data, leading to a breach of system confidentiality and integrity.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update ATutor to the latest version and check for PHP security patches. If possible, also apply server-side input filtering.
