Explanation

SQL injection is possible because despite using PreparedStatement, the code concatenates username and password directly into the query string instead of using parameter placeholders (?). The vulnerability is in the statement: "...where username="+username+" and password="+password. An attacker could input ' OR '1'='1 as password to bypass authentication. PreparedStatement only prevents SQLi when used with setString() on placeholders.
