VDB-221350 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceA SQL injection vulnerability exists in SourceCodester Online Pizza Ordering System 1.0. The ID parameter in /php-opos/index.php is not properly sanitized before being used in database queries, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Locate the application installationSearch for the 'php-opos' directory or files containing 'Online Pizza Ordering System' on the web server. Common paths include /var/www/html/, /htdocs/, or C:\inetpub\wwwroot\. Check for index.php within php-opos folder.Affected if The php-opos directory with index.php exists on the server
-
Identify the installed versionExamine version information files such as README.txt, VERSION, or a version.php file in the application root or php-opos directory. Also check the source code for version comments or constants.Affected if The version is exactly 1.0 as stated in the affected products
-
Verify the vulnerable endpoint existsConfirm that /php-opos/index.php exists in the web accessible directory. This is the file containing the vulnerable ID parameter handling.Affected if The file /php-opos/index.php is present in the web root
-
Check if the application is internet-facingDetermine if the web server hosting the php-opos directory is accessible from external networks or the internet. Check firewall rules, web server configuration, and network access controls.Affected if The application is publicly accessible via HTTP/HTTPS
-
Confirm parameter handling in source codeOpen /php-opos/index.php and search for code that retrieves or processes an 'id' parameter (e.g., $_GET['id'], $_POST['id']). Check if this parameter is used directly in SQL queries without prepared statements, parameter binding, or sanitization functions like mysqli_prepare, PDO::prepare, or htmlspecialchars/filter_var.Affected if The ID parameter is used directly in SQL queries without parameterized queries or input validation
The system is affected if the Online Pizza Ordering System version 1.0 is installed and the /php-opos/index.php file contains unsanitized ID parameter handling in SQL queries.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all database operations, particularly where the ID parameter is used. Apply input validation and output encoding. Consider using an ORM or database abstraction layer.
