Lifecycle Timeline
8DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in SourceCodester Pharmacy Sales and Inventory System 1.0. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /ajax.php?action=delete_receiving. This manipulation of the argument ID causes sql injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in SourceCodester Pharmacy Sales and Inventory System 1.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read, modify, or delete database records via the ID parameter in /ajax.php?action=delete_receiving. Publicly available exploit code (GitHub POC) demonstrates working attack against default installations with no authentication required (CVSS AV:N/AC:L/PR:N). EPSS data not available, but POC publication significantly lowers exploitation barrier for opportunistic attacks against internet-exposed instances.
Technical ContextAI
This is a classic SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in a PHP-based web application. The /ajax.php endpoint handles AJAX requests for the 'delete_receiving' action, accepting an 'ID' parameter that is directly concatenated into SQL queries without proper sanitization or parameterized statements. SQL injection allows attackers to break out of the intended query context and execute arbitrary SQL commands against the backend database. The affected product is SourceCodester Pharmacy Sales and Inventory System version 1.0, a PHP application typically deployed with MySQL/MariaDB databases. The CPE string (cpe:2.3:a:sourcecodester:pharmacy_sales_and_inventory_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) confirms this is a vendor-specific application from the SourceCodester open-source repository, commonly used by small pharmacies or as educational code examples.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis-SourceCodester does not appear to maintain active security updates for legacy versions. Organizations must implement application-level fixes: modify /ajax.php to use parameterized SQL queries (prepared statements) for all ID parameter handling in the delete_receiving function, replacing string concatenation with PDO/MySQLi bound parameters (e.g., $stmt = $pdo->prepare('DELETE FROM receiving WHERE id = ?'); $stmt->execute([$id]);). As immediate compensating controls, implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to block SQL injection patterns in the ID parameter (single quotes, UNION keywords, comment sequences), though this may break legitimate functionality if ID values legitimately contain special characters. Restrict network access to /ajax.php to authenticated sessions only by adding session validation checks at the script entry point-this reduces attack surface from unauthenticated remote to authenticated remote. Long-term recommendation: migrate to maintained inventory management software with active security support, as this application appears abandoned. All compensating controls are bypassed if attackers gain valid session cookies, so patching the underlying code defect is critical.
