Critical CVSS 9.8
CVE-2026-71237
NVD analysis in progress
Miantang/IoT-PHP's index.php implements a POST /userlogin route that reads the password directly from ['pwd'] with no sanitization and concatenates it into a raw SQL string: mysql_query("select * from userlists where username='' and password='' limit 1"). An unauthenticated attacker can submit a payload such as pwd=' OR '1'='1 to bypass authentication and, via UNION-based injection, extract arbitrary data from the database.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, without authentication and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Unescaped input is placed into an SQL query, letting the attacker read or alter the database (SQL injection).
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
What to doPatch without waiting for the next scheduled cycle. Start with the instances exposed to the internet.
