CVE-2025-7176 is a medium-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Phpgurukul Hospital Management System. Its CVSS base score is 5.5 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 44th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-7176 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability affecting PHPGurukul Hospital Management System version 1.0. The flaw resides in an unknown functionality of the file view-medhistory.php, where manipulation of the viewid argument enables SQL injection. Published on 2025-07-08, it is associated with CWEs-74 and CWE-89, carrying a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L).
The vulnerability allows remote exploitation without authentication or user interaction. Attackers can launch SQL injection attacks by manipulating the viewid parameter, potentially achieving low-level impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Advisories and details are available via VulDB entries and the vendor site at phpgurukul.com, along with a GitHub issue disclosing the exploit. No specific patch information is detailed in the primary description.
The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used by attackers.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover SQLi flaws before deployment but does not stop their introduction.
SI-10 directly requires validation of information inputs to reject malformed or special-element content before it reaches downstream parsers.
Secure engineering principles require parameterized queries and input sanitization that structurally eliminate SQLi.
System monitoring can identify attempted SQLi exploitation via anomalous queries after the weakness exists.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation and output encoding that prevent injection flaws.
Training raises developer awareness of SQLi risks and can reduce introduction likelihood (partial) but removes none of the actual coding flaw's risk by itself since technical neutralization is still required.

Security testing in development catches injection vulnerabilities before release.
Early warnings and shared best-practice information help organizations apply the latest remediation techniques against SQL-injection vulnerabilities.
Threat-intelligence feeds that surface new SQL-injection campaigns enable rapid updates to query-construction defenses and detection signatures before exploitation occurs.
Logging supports detection of injection attempts but does not prevent the weakness.
Monitoring activities can identify active injection attacks after they occur.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevent injection flaws.
