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

Performing a manipulation of the argument Username results in sql injection. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit is now public and may 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 confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in the login.php script of SourceCodester Simple and Nice Shopping Cart Script 1.0. The Username parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in an SQL query, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries (prepared statements) for the login functionality, ensuring all user inputs are treated as data rather than executable code.

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. Confirm application identity and version
    Inspect the application source code, footer, or any version file to verify this is SourceCodester Simple and Nice Shopping Cart Script version 1.0
    Affected if The application is running Simple and Nice Shopping Cart Script version 1.0 from SourceCodester
  2. Locate the login.php script
    Find login.php in the web application root directory
    Affected if login.php exists in the application root
  3. Inspect SQL query handling in login.php
    Open login.php and examine how the Username parameter is incorporated into SQL queries - look for direct string concatenation or unsanitized variable insertion
    Affected if The Username parameter is used directly in an SQL query without parameterized queries or proper escaping
  4. Check for input sanitization functions
    Search the login.php code for sanitization functions like mysqli_real_escape_string, htmlspecialchars, or input validation routines applied to the Username input
    Affected if No input sanitization or escaping is performed on the Username parameter before SQL execution
  5. Verify database query construction method
    Review the code around the SQL query that processes login credentials - check if prepare() or bind_param() methods are used for parameterized queries
    Affected if SQL queries are constructed using string concatenation or interpolation with user input rather than prepared statements

A user is affected if they are running SourceCodester Simple and Nice Shopping Cart Script version 1.0 and the login.php script uses dynamic SQL queries with the Username parameter without parameterized queries or input sanitization.
