CVE-2025-7469 is a critical SQL Injection vulnerability identified in version 1.0 of the Campcodes Sales and Inventory System, specifically affecting the /pages/product_add.php script. The vulnerability arises from improper sanitization or validation of the 'prod_name' parameter, which is susceptible to malicious input manipulation. An attacker can exploit this flaw remotely without requiring authentication or user interaction, by injecting crafted SQL payloads into the 'prod_name' argument. This can lead to unauthorized access to the underlying database, allowing attackers to read, modify, or delete sensitive sales and inventory data. The vulnerability has been publicly disclosed, increasing the risk of exploitation, although no known exploits have been reported in the wild yet. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 (medium severity), reflecting the network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no privileges or user interaction required, but limited impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The vulnerability does not require special conditions such as authentication or user interaction, making it easier to exploit if the system is exposed to the internet or accessible within an internal network. The lack of available patches or vendor mitigations at the time of disclosure further elevates the risk for organizations using this software version.

For European organizations utilizing the Campcodes Sales and Inventory System 1.0, this vulnerability poses a significant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of critical business data, including sales records, inventory levels, and potentially customer information. Exploitation could lead to data breaches, financial losses, disruption of supply chain management, and damage to organizational reputation. Given the nature of sales and inventory systems as core operational tools, successful attacks could also impact availability indirectly by corrupting data or causing system instability. The remote and unauthenticated exploitation vector means attackers can target exposed systems over the internet or internal networks, increasing the attack surface. Organizations in sectors such as retail, manufacturing, and distribution across Europe could face operational disruptions and regulatory compliance issues, especially under GDPR if personal data is compromised. The public disclosure of the vulnerability without an available patch increases the urgency for mitigation to prevent exploitation.

European organizations should immediately assess their exposure to the Campcodes Sales and Inventory System version 1.0, particularly focusing on internet-facing instances and internal systems accessible by untrusted users. In the absence of an official patch, organizations should implement the following specific mitigations: 1) Apply strict input validation and sanitization on the 'prod_name' parameter at the web application firewall (WAF) or reverse proxy level to block SQL injection payloads. 2) Employ parameterized queries or prepared statements if source code access is available to developers or administrators. 3) Restrict network access to the affected application by implementing network segmentation and limiting access to trusted IP addresses only. 4) Monitor logs for suspicious input patterns targeting 'prod_name' and unusual database query behavior. 5) Consider deploying runtime application self-protection (RASP) solutions to detect and block injection attempts in real-time. 6) Prepare for rapid patch deployment once the vendor releases an official fix. 7) Conduct security awareness training for IT staff to recognize and respond to exploitation attempts. These targeted actions go beyond generic advice by focusing on immediate risk reduction in the absence of vendor patches.
