CWE	CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
OWASP	A01:2017 - Injection
Confidence Level	Medium
Impact Level	Medium
Likelihood Level	High

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.
