Description#
User input is being directly included in SQL queries in Laravel without proper sanitization or parameterization. This allows attackers to inject malicious SQL code and manipulate database queries.
Impact#
If exploited, attackers could access, modify, or delete sensitive data, bypass authentication, or even take full control of the database. This can lead to data breaches, loss of data integrity, and severe damage to application security and reputation.
