SourceCodester Best Online News Portal version 1.0
**Description**
A critical issue was found in the file /admin/forgot-password.php, specifically in the POST Parameter Handler component. The manipulation of the `username` argument leads to SQL injection. This issue can be exploited remotely.

For version 1.0, consider disabling the `/admin/forgot-password.php` file or restricting access to it until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the `username` argument in the affected POST parameter handler to minimize the risk of exploitation.
