Online Product Reservation System: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component
CVE-2026-0575 is a critical-severity improper neutralization of special elements in output used by a downstream component vulnerability in Online Product Reservation System from code-projects, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected Online Product Reservation System versions: 1.0. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.43% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of Online Product Reservation System you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
A security vulnerability has been detected in code-projects Online Product Reservation System 1.0. This impacts an unknown function of the file /handgunner-administrator/adminlogin.php of the component Administrator Login. Such manipulation of the argument emailadd/pass leads to sql injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component
The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- Programming languages and supporting technologies might be chosen which are not subject to these issues.
- Utilize an appropriate mix of allowlist and denylist parsing to filter control-plane syntax from all input.
Timeline
- CVE record published.
- CISA published its SSVC assessment (exploitation: poc, automatable: yes, technical impact: partial).
- Record last changed materially (score, affected products, status or references).
