Summary
CVE-2023-27638 is a critical-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Tshirtecommerce Custom Product Designer. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, ranked in the top 3.0% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
Deeper analysis
The vulnerability is a SQL injection flaw (CWE-89) affecting the tshirtecommerce component version 2.1.4, also known as Custom Product Designer, for PrestaShop. It arises from an insecure parameter in the hookActionCartSave and updateCustomizationTable functions that processes the tshirtecommerce_design_cart_id GET value without proper sanitization, allowing a forged HTTP request to inject malicious SQL.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply a crafted GET parameter to trigger the injection. Successful exploitation grants full read, write, and delete access to the database, corresponding to the CVSS 9.8 rating that reflects impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Public advisories published by Friends of Presta in March 2023, along with references to the Codecanyon product page and the vendor site tshirtecommerce.com, direct administrators to the detailed security advisory for remediation steps and updated component versions.
The issue was observed being exploited in the wild shortly after disclosure in March 2023. Its EPSS probability rose materially from a low baseline to a peak of 0.5869 on 2025-12-18 before receding to the current value of 0.3275, indicating renewed attacker interest post-publication.
