Job Board SQL Injection Vulnerability
The Job Board application is vulnerable to SQL injection due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input before using it in an SQL query. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by injecting malicious SQL code in the 'cat' parameter of the 'index.php' page, leading to a compromise of the application, disclosure or modification of data, or exploitation of vulnerabilities in the underlying database implementation.
Mitigation:
To mitigate this vulnerability, the application should properly sanitize user-supplied input before using it in SQL queries. Prepared statements or parameterized queries can be used to prevent SQL injection attacks.
