MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | No special conditions are required. The vulnerable endpoint /admin/ajax.php?action=login is the standard admin login page, publicly reachable by design in any default deployment. The CVSS 4.0 vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N confirms exploitation requires no prior authentication, no elevated privileges, no specific non-default configuration, and no victim interaction. Factors that limit exploitation scope: (1) the target application must be deployed and network-accessible; (2) only Simple Online Food Ordering System version 1.0 is confirmed affected; (3) database impact is scoped to the application's own schema - lateral movement to the OS or other systems would require additional post-exploitation steps not described in this CVE. No feature-flag, module, or non-default setting is required to trigger the vulnerability. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with E:P) reflects a low-complexity, unauthenticated, remotely exploitable flaw with a confirmed public exploit - all signals consistently point to an elevated practical risk despite the moderate aggregate score of 5.5, which is suppressed by limited VC:L/VI:L/VA:L impact metrics. No EPSS score was provided in the intelligence data, so exploitation probability relative to the broader CVE population cannot be independently quantified. No CISA KEV listing is present, indicating exploitation has not been confirmed by government intelligence sources at time of analysis. The absence of a vendor patch and the existence of a published PoC are the two most actionable risk signals: any internet-exposed instance of this application should be treated as compromised-until-mitigated. No conflicting signals were found - all available data is internally consistent. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated remote attacker submits a crafted HTTP POST request to /admin/ajax.php?action=login with a SQL injection payload in the Username field - for example, a boolean-based bypass such as ' OR '1'='1 or a UNION-based query to enumerate database tables. A public proof-of-concept is available via GitHub (https://github.com/Kristin5634487/cve/issues/5), meaning exploitation requires no original research. A successful attack may yield authentication bypass granting admin panel access, or full enumeration of the application database including customer orders and credentials. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Aug 19, 2026
SQL injection in SourceCodester Simple Online Food Ordering System 1.0 exposes the unauthenticated admin login endpoint /admin/ajax.php?action=login to remote exploitation via the unsanitized Username parameter. A publicly available proof-of-concept exploit has been published on GitHub, reducing the bar for exploitation to near-zero skill level. The CVSS 4.0 vector confirms no authentication, privileges, or user interaction are required, though impact is limited to partial confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the underlying database.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis - SourceCodester has not published an updated release or advisory addressing this vulnerability. As the primary compensating control, operators should immediately restrict access to /admin/ajax.php using web server IP allowlisting (Apache .htaccess or nginx location blocks limited to known admin IP ranges), which eliminates the network attack vector but requires maintaining an accurate allowlist. A secondary control is deploying a WAF rule to block SQL metacharacter sequences in the Username parameter; note that WAF rules can be bypassed by determined attackers and should not be treated as a complete fix. The definitive remediation requires a code-level change: replacing string-concatenated SQL queries with parameterized queries or prepared statements (e.g., PHP PDO or MySQLi with bound parameters) in the login handler.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Simple Online Food Ordering System 1.0 is a PHP-based web application distributed by SourceCodester, commonly used in academic and small-scale deployment contexts. The root cause is CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in SQL Commands): the /admin/ajax.php?action=login endpoint constructs SQL queries by concatenating the raw Username parameter value without sanitization, prepared statements, or parameterized queries. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:sourcecodester:simple_online_food_ordering_system:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* uses a wildcard version field, indicating NVD has not scoped the affected range beyond the confirmed 1.0 release. The vulnerability class is a textbook authentication-bypass or data-exfiltration SQL injection against a PHP/MySQL stack.
