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
sourcecodester Pharmacy Point of Sale System v1.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection in /pharmacy/view_receipt.php.

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 · moderate confidence

The Pharmacy Point of Sale System v1.0 by SourceCodester contains a SQL Injection vulnerability in the view_receipt.php file. This allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through unsanitized input, potentially enabling unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or complete system compromise. The critical CVSS score of 9.8 indicates the vulnerability is exploitable over the network with low complexity and no authentication required.

MitigationRemediate by replacing dynamic SQL queries with parameterized statements or prepared statements in view_receipt.php, and conduct a broader code audit to identify and fix similar SQL injection vulnerabilities throughout the application.

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. Identify installed version of Pharmacy Point of Sale System
    Locate the application directory and check for version indicators such as a version file, footer/version in source code, or any README/installation files. Compare against version 1.0.
    Affected if The application version is exactly 1.0 and is the Oretnom23 Pharmacy Point Of Sale System.
  2. Verify presence of vulnerable file view_receipt.php
    Check for the existence of /pharmacy/view_receipt.php within the web application root directory.
    Affected if The file /pharmacy/view_receipt.php exists in the application.
  3. Confirm the application is accessible over network
    Attempt to access the application's login page or main interface via HTTP/HTTPS to confirm the system is deployed and reachable.
    Affected if The Pharmacy POS System is deployed and accessible (not just source code installed).
  4. Identify if user-supplied input reaches the vulnerable script
    Review view_receipt.php for direct use of request parameters (GET/POST) in SQL queries without visible sanitization or parameterized query implementation.
    Affected if The script accepts user input (via query parameters or form data) and uses it directly in SQL queries without prepared statements or input validation.

The system is affected if it runs Oretnom23 Pharmacy Point of Sale System v1.0 with the view_receipt.php file accessible and using unsanitized user input in SQL queries.
