CVE-2023-44166
CWE-89Published: September 28, 2023· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
The 'age' parameter of the process_registration.php resource
does not validate the characters received and they
are sent unfiltered to the database.
Risk Analysis
The Online Movie Ticket Booking System 1.0 fails to validate the age parameter in process_registration.php, leading to a SQL injection vulnerability. This allows remote attackers to send unfiltered input to the database, potentially compromising data.
The vulnerability is remotely exploitable with low complexity. It is not in the CISA KEV, and no public exploit is known.
Validate and sanitize the age parameter before database insertion. Use parameterized queries to prevent injection.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2023-44166 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.8.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-89): SQL injection vulnerabilities allow attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially exposing or modifying sensitive data.
