🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Unknown
Vendor Advisory: https://www.campcodes.com/
Restart Required: No
Instructions:
1. Check vendor website for security updates. 2. If patch available, download and apply. 3. Test functionality after patching. 4. Monitor for any issues.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Input Validation Filter
allAdd server-side validation to reject malicious discount parameter values containing SQL syntax.
Modify /pages/sales_add.php to sanitize discount parameter using prepared statements or parameterized queries
Web Application Firewall
allDeploy WAF with SQL injection rules to block malicious requests.
Configure WAF to block requests containing SQL keywords in discount parameter
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Block external access to the system using network firewalls or access controls.
- Implement database user with minimal privileges (read-only if possible) for the web application.
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Test the discount parameter with SQL injection payloads like ' OR '1'='1 and observe database errors or unexpected behavior.
Check Version:
Check system documentation or admin interface for version information; typically shows 'Version 1.0' in footer or about page.
Verify Fix Applied:
Retest with SQL injection payloads after applying fixes; should return proper error messages or reject input without database interaction.
📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- HTTP requests to /pages/sales_add.php with SQL keywords in parameters
