Summary

CVE-2026-6166 is a medium-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Code Projects (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 6.9 (Medium).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 13.5th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2026-6166 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-89) in code-projects Vehicle Showroom Management System 1.0. The flaw resides in the processing of the file /util/UpdateVehicleFunction.php, where manipulation of the VEHICLE_ID argument enables SQL injection.

Remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability without authentication privileges, user interaction, or high complexity, as indicated by the CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L (base score 7.3). Exploitation allows limited impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability through SQL injection.

Mitigation details are referenced in advisories including https://vuldb.com/vuln/357054, https://vuldb.com/vuln/357054/cti, https://vuldb.com/submit/797097, https://github.com/wfcht-sy/src/issues/2, and https://code-projects.org/. The exploit has been publicly disclosed.
