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 · unedited
A weakness has been identified in TrippWasTaken PHP-Guitar-Shop up to 6ce0868889617c1975982aae6df8e49555d0d555. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /product.php of the component Product Details Page. Executing manipulation of the argument ID can lead to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be exploited. This product takes the approach of rolling releases to provide continious delivery. Therefore, version details for affected and updated releases are not available. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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 confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in PHP-Guitar-Shop product.php allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the untrusted ID parameter in the Product Details Page. The vulnerability stems from improper input sanitization when handling the ID argument, potentially enabling unauthorized data access or manipulation.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements for the ID parameter, implement strict input validation, and consider deploying a WAF as a temporary layer of defense.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate the PHP-Guitar-Shop installation
    Search your web server directories for files named 'product.php' or folders containing 'guitar-shop' or similar naming patterns common to this application.
    Affected if The application files exist on the server and are web-accessible.
  2. Identify the product.php file
    Open product.php in a text editor and locate the code handling the 'ID' parameter (commonly via $_GET['ID'] or $_REQUEST['ID']).
    Affected if The file exists and retrieves an ID parameter from user input.
  3. Examine SQL query construction for the ID parameter
    Search within product.php for SQL SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statements that directly concatenate or embed the ID parameter into the query string without using prepared statements or parameter binding.
    Affected if The code contains SQL queries where the ID parameter is inserted directly into the query string (e.g., 'SELECT * FROM products WHERE id=' . $_GET['ID']).
  4. Verify input sanitization status
    Look for functions like mysqli_real_escape_string, htmlspecialchars, intval type casting, or other validation routines applied to the ID parameter before its use in SQL queries.
    Affected if No sanitization functions are found, or sanitization is applied inconsistently/not at all before SQL execution.
  5. Confirm database interaction
    Check if the product.php page connects to a database and executes the query identified in step 3. Verify the query is actually used in a mysqli_query, $pdo->query, or similar database execution function.
    Affected if The unsanitized ID parameter is passed directly to a database execution function.

You are affected if PHP-Guitar-Shop is installed and product.php contains direct SQL query construction using the user-supplied ID parameter without prepared statements or proper input sanitization.
