Campcodes Courier Management System CVE-2025-8229

Apply a vendor-released patch or upgrade to a patched version of Campcodes Courier Management System if available from https://www.campcodes.com/. If no vendor patch is available, implement the following compensating controls: (1) Apply input validation to the 's' parameter in /parcel_list.php, enforcing strict whitelist rules for expected values and rejecting any input containing SQL metacharacters; (2) Replace all dynamic SQL query construction with parameterized prepared statements (prepared queries with placeholders), which completely eliminate SQL injection attacks by separating code from data; (3) Restrict database user privileges assigned to the application connection to the minimum necessary permissions, preventing attackers from dropping tables or accessing sensitive system catalogs even if SQLi is exploited; (4) Implement Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQLi patterns in the 's' parameter; (5) Require strong authentication and rate-limiting on the /parcel_list.php endpoint to reduce the pool of potential attackers. Parameterized queries are the primary defense and should be prioritized; WAF and privilege restrictions provide defense-in-depth but do not eliminate the underlying vulnerability.
