CVE-2025-7411 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the code-projects LifeStyle Store application, specifically within an unspecified functionality of the /success.php file. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'ID' parameter, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code. This injection can be performed remotely without any authentication or user interaction, making it highly exploitable. The vulnerability enables attackers to manipulate backend database queries, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, data modification, or even full compromise of the underlying database server. Although the exact database type is not specified, typical SQL injection impacts include data leakage, data corruption, and in some cases, execution of administrative commands on the database server. The CVSS 4.0 score is 6.9 (medium severity), reflecting the ease of exploitation (network vector, no privileges or user interaction required) but limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability (each rated low). No known exploits are currently reported in the wild, but public disclosure of the exploit code increases the risk of exploitation. No patches or mitigations have been linked yet, indicating that affected users must implement immediate defensive measures to reduce risk.

For European organizations using the LifeStyle Store 1.0 application, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of customer and transactional data. Exploitation could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive personal data, violating GDPR requirements and potentially resulting in regulatory penalties and reputational damage. The ability to remotely exploit this vulnerability without authentication increases the attack surface, especially for e-commerce platforms or online stores using this software. Data manipulation or leakage could disrupt business operations and customer trust. Additionally, compromised databases could be leveraged for further lateral movement or persistent access within the organization's network. The medium severity rating suggests that while the vulnerability is serious, the overall impact might be limited by the scope of the vulnerable functionality and the database's role in the application. However, given the critical nature of e-commerce data, even medium-severity SQL injection vulnerabilities warrant urgent attention in Europe due to strict data protection laws and high consumer expectations.

European organizations should immediately audit their use of the LifeStyle Store 1.0 application and isolate any instances exposing the /success.php endpoint. Since no official patch is currently available, organizations should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns targeting the 'ID' parameter. 2) Conduct thorough input validation and sanitization on all user-supplied parameters, especially 'ID', using parameterized queries or prepared statements if possible. 3) Restrict database permissions for the application user to the minimum necessary to limit the impact of a successful injection. 4) Monitor logs for unusual database query patterns or repeated access attempts to /success.php. 5) If feasible, temporarily disable or restrict access to the vulnerable functionality until a vendor patch or update is released. 6) Educate development and security teams about secure coding practices to prevent similar vulnerabilities in future versions. 7) Prepare incident response plans to quickly address any exploitation attempts.
