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 vulnerability was identified in SourceCodester Web-based Pharmacy Product Management System 1.0. Affected is an unknown function of the file /product_expiry/edit-admin.php. Such manipulation of the argument ID 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 · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in SourceCodester Pharmacy Product Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to manipulate the ID parameter in /product_expiry/edit-admin.php. The application fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in SQL queries, enabling attackers to inject malicious SQL code.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements. Additionally, implement input validation and apply the principle of least privilege to database accounts.

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 application version
    Locate the SourceCodester Pharmacy Product Management System installation and check its version number, typically found in a README file, about page, or version configuration file
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0 or falls within the affected range without patches applied
  2. Verify vulnerable file exists
    Check if the file /product_expiry/edit-admin.php exists in the web application directory structure
    Affected if The file exists and is accessible via the web server
  3. Confirm parameter exposure
    Inspect the edit-admin.php script to determine if the ID parameter is received via GET or POST request without proper sanitization
    Affected if The ID parameter is directly used in SQL queries without prepared statements or input validation
  4. Review SQL query implementation
    Examine the source code of edit-admin.php to identify if dynamic SQL queries concatenate user input (the ID parameter) directly into the query string
    Affected if The code constructs SQL queries by concatenating the ID parameter without parameterized queries or sanitization functions
  5. Test parameter accessibility
    Send a request to /product_expiry/edit-admin.php with an ID parameter value to confirm the endpoint accepts user-supplied input
    Affected if The application accepts and processes the ID parameter without rejecting or sanitizing malicious SQL input

The environment is affected if running SourceCodester Pharmacy Product Management System 1.0 with the /product_expiry/edit-admin.php file present and the ID parameter directly used in unsanitized SQL queries.
