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 from the HTTP request is being passed directly to the 'ignore' parameter in Laravel's Rule::unique validation. This allows attackers to inject malicious input that could alter or break the underlying SQL query.

Impact

If exploited, an attacker could perform SQL injection, potentially exposing, modifying, or deleting database records. This could lead to data breaches, loss of data integrity, or unauthorized access to sensitive information.
