Web-Based Inventory and POS System CVE-2025-11431

Contact the vendor at code-projects.org to inquire about patched releases or upgrade guidance; no vendor-released patch version is currently identified. Until a vendor patch is available, implement the following compensating controls: restrict database user account permissions to execute only SELECT queries on necessary tables and deny CREATE, DROP, ALTER, or DELETE privileges, limiting the scope of SQL injection impact; implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL syntax patterns in the shopid parameter (watch for single quotes, UNION, SELECT, OR 1=1, etc.); enforce strong access controls to limit system authentication to trusted staff only, reducing the window of insider threat exploitation; and consider disabling the /transaction.php endpoint if its functionality is not critical, reverting to alternative transaction logging mechanisms. Each mitigation has trade-offs: WAF rules may produce false positives if legitimate data contains SQL-like strings; restricting database permissions requires application testing to ensure no legitimate queries fail; limiting authentication access may impact operational efficiency.
