This flaw enables attackers to manipulate the underlying SQL logic, potentially leading to sensitive data exposure, data alteration, or full compromise of the database.\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Affected Product\\n – **Name:** Grocery Store Management System \\n – **Vendor:** anirudhkannan \\n – **Version:** 1.0 \\n – **Repository:** \\n https:\/\/github.com\/anirudhkannanvp\/GROCERY-STORE-MANAGEMENT-SYSTEM-USING-PHP-AND-MYSQL-PHPMYADMIN-\/tree\/master \\n – **Affected File:** \\n `Grocery\/search_products.php`\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Vulnerability Description\\n The vulnerability exists due to the **direct concatenation of unvalidated user input** into SQL queries. \\n The `scost` POST parameter, intended to represent a numeric product cost value, is embedded into the SQL WHERE clause without:\\n \\n – Input sanitization \\n – Type enforcement \\n – Parameterized queries \\n – Prepared statement usage \\n \\n This allows an attacker to inject **arbitrary SQL boolean expressions**, altering query behavior and extracting database contents using **boolean-based SQL Injection** techniques.\\n \\n The vulnerability is exploitable through a standard POST request to `search_products.php`. When malicious expressions are supplied, the backend returns measurable response differences (TRUE\/FALSE variations), confirming that user input influences SQL logic.\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Root Cause\\n – Lack of server-side validation on the `scost` input field \\n – Direct use of string concatenation for building SQL queries \\n – Absence of prepared statements in the affected code path \\n – No filtering or whitelisting for numeric input fields \\n \\n These conditions collectively enable attackers to modify the intended SQL logic.\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Severity \\u0026 Impact\\n This vulnerability is rated **High** due to its low attack complexity, lack of authentication requirements, and full read\/write database impact.\\n \\n ### Potential Impacts Include:\\n – **Sensitive data exposure:** Attackers may extract product, user, or system data. \\n – **Data modification or deletion:** Injected SQL can alter or remove database entries. \\n – **Authentication bypass (possible):** If used in other parts of the application\u2019s query logic. \\n – **Full database compromise:** Depending on DB privileges and configuration. \\n – **System instability:** Malicious queries could disrupt normal application behavior.\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## CVSS v3.1 Score (Preliminary Assessment)\\n **CVSS:3.1\/AV:N\/AC:L\/PR:N\/UI:N\/S:U\/C:H\/I:H\/A:H**\\n \\n – **Attack Vector (AV):** Network \\n – **Attack Complexity (AC):** Low \\n – **Privileges Required (PR):** None \\n – **User Interaction (UI):** None \\n – **Scope (S):** Unchanged \\n – **Confidentiality (C):** High \\n – **Integrity (I):** High \\n – **Availability (A):** High \\n \\n **Estimated Severity: High (9.8)**\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Exploitation Summary\\n The vulnerability can be exploited through crafted values passed to the `scost` parameter. \\n Attackers can:\\n \\n – Influence boolean logic \\n – Trigger conditional responses \\n – Enumerate database structures \\n – Extract sensitive information \\n \\n *(Detailed payloads are intentionally omitted to prevent misuse.)*\\n \\n —\\n \\n ## Mitigation \\u0026 Recommendations\\n \\n ### For Developers \/ Vendors\\n To remediate the vulnerability:\\n \\n 1. **Implement prepared statements \/ parameterized queries** \\n 2. **Enforce strict input validation** \u2014 ensure `scost` accepts only numeric values \\n 3. **Reject suspicious characters** \u2014 filter operators, quotes, comments, and expression symbols \\n 4. **Apply least-privilege database permissions** \\n 5. **Audit the codebase** for similar patterns elsewhere in the application \\n \\n ### For Users\\n Until a patch is available:\\n \\n – Restrict public access to the application \\n – Use a firewall or WAF to block malicious requests \\n – Monitor logs for unusual SQL-related behavior\\n – \\n —\\n \\n ## References\\n – OWASP SQL Injection: https:\/\/owasp.org\/www-community\/attacks\/SQL_Injection \\n – CWE-89 \u2014 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in SQL Commands”,”sourceHref”:”https:\/\/packetstorm.news\/download\/211630″,”cvss”:{“score”:0,”severity”:”NONE”,”vector”:”NONE”,”version”:”NONE”},”cvss2″:{},”cvss3″:{“version”:””,”vectorString”:””,”baseScore”:0,”baseSeverity”:””,”attackVector”:””,”attackComplexity”:””,”privilegesRequired”:””,”userInteraction”:””,”scope”:””,”confidentialityImpact”:””,”integrityImpact”:””,”availabilityImpact”:””,”cvssV3″:{“version”:””,”vectorString”:””,”baseScore”:0,”baseSeverity”:””,”attackVector”:””,”attackComplexity”:””,”privilegesRequired”:””,”userInteraction”:””,”scope”:””,”confidentialityImpact”:””,”integrityImpact”:””,”availabilityImpact”:””}},”href”:”https:\/\/packetstorm.news\/files\/id\/211630\/”,”category_name”:”Exploit”,”post_link”:””,”product”:””,”version”:””,”vendor”:””,”ai_description”:””,”ai_severity”:””,”ai_vendor”:””,”ai_product”:””,”ai_version”:””,”ai_score”:0}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
