CVE-2026-0728 is a medium-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Carmelo Intern Membership Management System. Its CVSS base score is 5.1 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 0.4th 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 are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and AC-6 (Least Privilege).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2026-0728 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-89) in code-projects Intern Membership Management System 1.0. The issue resides in the processing of the admin_id argument within the file /intern/admin/delete_admin.php, allowing malicious input to manipulate database queries.

The vulnerability is remotely exploitable over the network (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L), but requires high privileges (PR:H) and no user interaction (UI:N). An attacker with sufficient access can achieve low impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (C:L/I:L/A:L), with an overall CVSS v3.1 score of 4.7 and unchanged scope (S:U).

Advisories and references, including those from VulDB (ctiid.340125, id.340125, submit.733003) and a GitHub repository detailing the exploit, confirm the issue. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be used; practitioners should review these sources and the vendor site at code-projects.org for any mitigation or patch details.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly requires validation and sanitization of the admin_id parameter in delete_admin.php to block malicious SQL syntax before query execution.

prevent

Limits the number of accounts that possess the high privileges required to reach and exploit the vulnerable admin deletion function.

detect

Enables monitoring of database query patterns and anomalies originating from /intern/admin/delete_admin.php to identify attempted SQL injection.
