CVE-2025-10565 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the Campcodes Grocery Sales and Inventory System. The vulnerability exists in the /ajax.php endpoint, specifically when the 'action' parameter is set to 'delete_receiving'. Manipulation of the 'ID' argument in this request allows an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection flaw can be exploited remotely without requiring authentication or user interaction, making it a significant risk. The vulnerability enables an attacker to interfere with the backend database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion. The CVSS 4.0 base score of 6.9 reflects a medium severity level, considering the attack vector is network-based, with low complexity, no privileges or user interaction required, but with limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Although no public exploits are currently known in the wild, the vulnerability has been publicly disclosed, increasing the likelihood of exploitation attempts. The lack of available patches or mitigation from the vendor further elevates the risk for organizations using this software. Given the role of this system in managing grocery sales and inventory, exploitation could disrupt business operations, compromise sensitive customer or inventory data, and potentially facilitate further attacks within the affected environment.

For European organizations utilizing the Campcodes Grocery Sales and Inventory System, this vulnerability poses a tangible threat to operational continuity and data security. Successful exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive sales and inventory data, impacting confidentiality. Data integrity could be compromised by unauthorized modifications or deletions of inventory records, leading to inaccurate stock levels and financial discrepancies. Availability may also be affected if the database is corrupted or manipulated, causing system downtime or degraded performance. Retailers and grocery chains relying on this system could face operational disruptions, financial losses, and reputational damage. Additionally, compromised systems could serve as entry points for broader network intrusions, increasing the overall cybersecurity risk. The medium severity rating suggests that while the threat is serious, it may not result in catastrophic outcomes unless combined with other vulnerabilities or poor security practices. However, the ease of remote exploitation without authentication makes timely mitigation critical to prevent potential attacks.

Given the absence of official patches, European organizations should implement immediate compensating controls. First, restrict access to the vulnerable endpoint (/ajax.php?action=delete_receiving) by applying network-level controls such as IP whitelisting or VPN access to limit exposure. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'ID' parameter. Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all parameters, especially those interacting with database queries, to prevent injection attacks. Organizations should also monitor logs for unusual or suspicious requests to the vulnerable endpoint, enabling early detection of exploitation attempts. Segmentation of the network can limit lateral movement if compromise occurs. Regular backups of the database should be maintained to enable recovery in case of data tampering or loss. Finally, organizations should engage with the vendor to seek updates or patches and consider upgrading to newer, secure versions of the software when available.
