CVE-2025-13451
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was identified in SourceCodester Online Shop Project 1.0. The affected element is an unknown function of the file /action.php. Such manipulation of the argument Search leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used.
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 critical SQL injection vulnerability exists in SourceCodester Online Shop Project 1.0 within the /action.php file. The untrusted 'Search' parameter is directly incorporated into SQL queries without proper sanitization or parameterized 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.
-
Confirm product versionLocate and inspect the application version information (check README, about page, or version file in the web root). Compare against version 1.0.Affected if The installed version is Oretnom23 Online Shop Project version 1.0
-
Locate action.phpFind the action.php file in the web application directory structure, typically in the root or admin directory.Affected if The action.php file exists in the application
-
Check Search parameter usageInspect the action.php source code and locate code handling the 'Search' parameter (typically via $_GET or $_POST). Look for SQL queries that directly incorporate this parameter.Affected if The Search parameter from user input is used in SQL queries without prepared statements or parameterization
-
Identify vulnerable query patternExamine the SQL query construction in action.php related to search functionality. Check if user input is concatenated or interpolated directly into the query string.Affected if The Search parameter value is directly inserted into the SQL query string without escaping, binding, or prepared statements
You are affected if you are running Oretnom23 Online Shop Project version 1.0 and the action.php file contains direct SQL query construction using the Search parameter without parameterized 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 involving user input, particularly the Search parameter in action.php. Apply input validation and output encoding as defense-in-depth measures.
