CVE-2026-41462 is an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability affecting ProjeQtor versions 7.0 through 12.4.3. The flaw is in the login functionality, where the user-supplied login value is directly concatenated into a SQL query without parameterization or sanitization. An attacker can submit crafted input in the username field to the authentication endpoint and inject arbitrary SQL expressions. Based on the provided information, successful exploitation can be used to manipulate authentication-related data, create privileged accounts, extract sensitive information from the backend database, and potentially reach operating system command execution when the underlying database account has sufficiently elevated privileges.

Small repository containing a standalone Python exploit, a YAML detection template, and documentation. The main capability is unauthenticated SQL injection against ProjeQtor login functionality (claimed affected versions 7.0 through 12.4.3) to create a new administrative account by injecting an INSERT statement into the login parameter. The Python script uses requests.Session, accepts a target URL and optional proxy, builds the target login endpoint with urljoin, and POSTs crafted form data to /login.php. Although it exposes a --create-admin flag, the current code always prepares and sends the admin-creation payload regardless of that flag. It reports success based primarily on receiving HTTP 200, so validation is minimal. The YAML file is a detection template rather than an exploit: it sends a benign SQLi probe to /login.php, /projeqtor/login.php, or /login and matches SQL error strings and status codes 200/500. Overall, the repository purpose is dual-use: practical exploitation via account creation plus vulnerability detection/fingerprinting via the YAML template.
