How the CVE Works:
CVE-2025-3697 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in SourceCodester’s Web-based Pharmacy Product Management System 1.0. The flaw exists in the `/edit-product.php` file, where the `ID` parameter is improperly sanitized before being used in SQL queries. Attackers can manipulate this parameter to inject malicious SQL commands, potentially leading to unauthorized database access, data theft, or system compromise. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable, requiring low-privilege access, and has a public exploit, increasing its risk.
