🚨 A single malicious event_id parameter can turn your database into an attacker's playground! 🔥 Think of it like a cafeteria where anyone can sneak in a special request that changes the menu — instead of chicken, you get mystery meat that’s definitely not on the approved list. In this case, the attacker is rewriting the rules of the recipe to serve up whatever they like! An attacker could execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leaking sensitive data or even deleting crucial records from the database. This could lead to unauthorized access, data loss, and a total disruption of your school management system. It’s a scenario that can leave your institution in absolute chaos!
