| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-74 | The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component. |
| CWE-89 | The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
CVE-2026-7228 is an Error-Based SQL Injection vulnerability found in the Pizzafy Ecommerce System version 1.0. It affects the function get_cart_count in the file /admin/ajax.php, specifically the id parameter used in the SQL query. This parameter is not properly sanitized, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL commands remotely.
The vulnerability arises because the id parameter, which corresponds to the user_id column in the database, is directly used in an SQL query without validation or parameterization. Attackers can exploit this by injecting SQL payloads that cause the database to return error messages containing sensitive information such as database version, schema details, usernames, and password hashes.
This injection can also lead to unauthorized data manipulation, deletion of records, and privilege escalation including session hijacking and administrative access.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
This vulnerability can have severe impacts including:
- Confidentiality breach through full exposure of database schema and user credentials.
- Integrity compromise by allowing unauthorized deletion or modification of records.
- Availability issues such as potential denial of service caused by mass deletion of data.
- Privilege escalation enabling session hijacking and gaining administrative access.
How can this vulnerability be detected on my network or system? Can you suggest some commands?
This vulnerability can be detected by sending specially crafted HTTP GET requests to the vulnerable endpoint and observing the responses for SQL error messages that reveal database information.
For example, you can test the vulnerable endpoint `/pizzafy/admin/ajax.php?action=get_cart_count&id=1` by injecting an error-based SQL payload such as:
- GET /pizzafy/admin/ajax.php?action=get_cart_count&id=1 and extractvalue(1, concat(0x7e, version())) --
If the response contains database version information or SQL error messages, it indicates the presence of the SQL injection vulnerability.
You can use command-line tools like curl to perform this test, for example:
- curl "http://localhost/pizzafy/admin/ajax.php?action=get_cart_count&id=1%20and%20extractvalue(1,%20concat(0x7e,%20version()))%20--"
Monitoring logs for unusual database query patterns or error messages can also help detect exploitation attempts.
What immediate steps should I take to mitigate this vulnerability?
Immediate mitigation steps include:
- Use prepared statements with parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection, especially for the `id` parameter in the vulnerable function.
- Validate and sanitize all user inputs to ensure no malicious SQL code can be injected.
- Restrict database user privileges to minimize potential damage if an injection occurs.
- Implement proper error handling to avoid exposing database error messages to users.
- Conduct regular security testing, including penetration testing and code reviews, to identify and fix vulnerabilities.
- Monitor and log unusual database query patterns to detect exploitation attempts early.
How does this vulnerability affect compliance with common standards and regulations (like GDPR, HIPAA)?:
The SQL injection vulnerability in the Pizzafy Ecommerce System allows attackers to extract sensitive data such as database schema, user credentials, and potentially personal information. This exposure of confidential data can lead to violations of data protection regulations like GDPR and HIPAA, which mandate the protection of personal and sensitive information.
Additionally, the vulnerability enables unauthorized data manipulation and privilege escalation, which compromises data integrity and availability. Such impacts conflict with compliance requirements that demand data accuracy, integrity, and availability.
Therefore, if exploited, this vulnerability could result in non-compliance with standards that require safeguarding personal data, implementing access controls, and ensuring secure processing of information.
