Deeper analysis
CVE-2026-7088 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-74, CWE-89) in SourceCodester Pharmacy Sales and Inventory System 1.0. The flaw resides in an unknown function within the file /ajax.php?action=save_receiving, where manipulation of the ID argument enables SQL injection. Published on 2026-04-27, it carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.3 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility and ease of exploitation.
Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability with low complexity and no user interaction. By crafting malicious requests targeting the ID parameter, attackers can inject SQL payloads, potentially leading to limited impacts on confidentiality (e.g., data exposure), integrity (e.g., data alteration), and availability (e.g., denial of service). A public exploit is available, increasing the risk of real-world attacks.
Advisories provide further details via VulDB entries (e.g., vuln/359663) and a GitHub issue at nidieaaa/test/issues/3, with the vendor site at sourcecodester.com. No specific patches or mitigations are outlined in the disclosure, emphasizing the need for input validation, prepared statements, and system updates where available.
