Input Validation Filter
allAdd input validation to sanitize the ID parameter before processing
Modify /pet1/update_cnp.php to validate ID parameter as integer using is_numeric() or filter_var()
WAF Rule
allImplement web application firewall rules to block SQL injection patterns
Add WAF rule: deny requests containing SQL keywords like UNION, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE in URL parameters

Check if Vulnerable:
Test /pet1/update_cnp.php with SQL injection payloads like ' OR '1'='1 in ID parameter
Check Version:
Check software version in admin panel or readme files
Verify Fix Applied:
Verify input validation rejects non-numeric ID values and SQL injection attempts return error pages
