Campcodes Computer Sales and Inventory System SQL Injection Vulnerability

A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in Campcodes Computer Sales and Inventory System version 1.0. The issue arises in the file '/pages/sup_searchfrm.php' when the 'id' parameter is manipulated. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries, potentially leading to unauthorized database access, data modification or deletion, and exposure of sensitive information.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability allows for SQL injection, where attackers can manipulate database queries to gain unauthorized access to the database, alter or delete data, and access confidential information. Such actions pose a significant risk to the overall security of the system and its data integrity.

Reproduction

To reproduce this vulnerability, send a GET request to the '/pages/sup_searchfrm.php' file with the 'action' parameter set to 'edit' and the 'id' parameter manipulated to include malicious SQL payloads. This can be done using a tool like sqlmap, which automates the process of finding and exploiting SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Remediation

It is recommended to use prepared statements and parameter binding to prevent SQL injection, validate and filter user input, minimize database user permissions, and conduct regular security audits.
