CVE-2025-11070 is a SQL Injection vulnerability identified in Projectworlds Online Shopping System version 1.0, specifically affecting an unspecified portion of the /store/cart_add.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'ID' parameter, which can be manipulated by an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection flaw allows an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries on the backend database remotely without requiring any authentication or user interaction. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 6.9, indicating a medium severity level. The attack vector is network-based (AV:N), with low attack complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), and no user interaction (UI:N). The impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is low to limited (VC:L, VI:L, VA:L), suggesting that while exploitation can lead to unauthorized data access or modification, the scope and severity of damage are somewhat constrained. No patches or fixes have been published yet, and no known exploits are currently observed in the wild, although public exploit code exists, increasing the risk of exploitation. The vulnerability affects only version 1.0 of the Projectworlds Online Shopping System, a web-based e-commerce platform, which may be deployed by small to medium-sized retailers. The SQL Injection in the cart_add.php script could allow attackers to manipulate shopping cart data, extract sensitive customer or transactional information, or potentially escalate attacks to compromise the underlying database server or application logic.

For European organizations using Projectworlds Online Shopping System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a tangible risk to the confidentiality and integrity of customer data and transaction records. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized disclosure of personally identifiable information (PII), payment details, or business-sensitive data, undermining customer trust and potentially violating GDPR regulations. The integrity of order processing and inventory management could also be compromised, leading to financial losses or operational disruptions. Although the CVSS score suggests a medium severity, the ease of remote exploitation without authentication elevates the threat level, especially for organizations lacking robust network defenses or input validation controls. Retailers in Europe relying on this software may face reputational damage, regulatory penalties, and increased exposure to fraud or data breaches. Additionally, the presence of publicly available exploit code lowers the barrier for attackers, increasing the likelihood of targeted attacks against vulnerable installations.

Organizations should immediately audit their use of Projectworlds Online Shopping System version 1.0 and prioritize upgrading to a patched or newer version once available. In the interim, implement strict input validation and parameterized queries or prepared statements in the cart_add.php script to prevent SQL Injection. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) configured to detect and block SQL Injection payloads targeting the 'ID' parameter. Conduct thorough code reviews and penetration testing focused on injection flaws. Restrict database user permissions to the minimum necessary to limit the impact of any successful injection. Monitor web server and database logs for suspicious activity related to the cart_add.php endpoint. Additionally, segment the network to isolate the e-commerce platform and enforce strong access controls. Educate development and IT teams on secure coding practices and the importance of timely patch management. Finally, prepare an incident response plan to quickly address any exploitation attempts.
