Impact
A flaw exists in the file /opils/staff/edit_quantity.php of SourceCodester Performance Indicator System 1.0. The argument pqty is not properly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands. This vulnerability is a classic SQL injection (CWE-89) and is triggered by malformed input (CWE-74). A successful exploit could let an unauthenticated remote user read, modify, or delete data in the underlying database, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Affected Systems
The affected product is SourceCodester Performance Indicator System version 1.0. No other versions or products are listed, and the vulnerability resides specifically in the edit_quantity.php script.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 6.9 indicates medium severity. EPSS is not available, and the vulnerability is not included in the CISA KEV list. The attack vector is remote via direct manipulation of the pqty parameter in a web request, and the exploit has been publicly disclosed. Due to these factors, the risk of exploitation remains significant in environments that expose the affected script without mitigation.
