CVE-2024-5099Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Database disclosure via unfiltered ITEM parameter

Published May 19, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

SQL injection in SourceCodester Simple Inventory System 1.0 allows remote authenticated users to read database data through an ITEM request. The updateprice.php endpoint concatenates the POST ITEM value directly into an SQL UPDATE statement without filtering or parameter binding. A valid backend session is required; crafted Boolean-based queries disclose database contents, while injected SQL can alter stored inventory data.
