You can login with username and password: admin' or '1'='1

How to fix
----------
One of the method's to fix and secure such Auth Bypass flaw's, is to use the php function mysql_real_escape_string.
It causes that every of this characters \x00, \n, \r, \, '
get's replaced with a simple Backslash „/“, so the attackers commands become useless.

   Example: lms/login.php

		$username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
		$password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']);
		/* student */
			$query = "SELECT * FROM student WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'";
			$result = mysql_query($query)or die(mysql_error());
			$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
			$num_row = mysql_num_rows($result);
		/* teacher */
		$query_teacher = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM teacher WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'")or die(mysql_error());
		$num_row_teacher = mysql_num_rows($query_teacher);
		$row_teahcer = mysql_fetch_array($query_teacher);
		if( $num_row > 0 ) { 

   Example: lms/admin/login.php

		$username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']);
		$password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']);

		$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$username' AND password='$password'")or die(mysql_error());
		$count = mysql_num_rows($query);
		$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);
