Deeper analysis

CVE-2026-26695 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in code-projects Simple Student Alumni System version 1.0, specifically affecting the /TracerStudy/recordstudent_edit.php component. Published on 2026-03-02, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), marking it as critical due to its potential for severe impact.

Remote attackers require no authentication or privileges and can exploit the vulnerability over the network with low attack complexity and no user interaction. Successful exploitation enables high-impact compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, allowing arbitrary SQL command execution against the backend database.
