Technical details
A business logic vulnerability (CWE-840) exists in SourceCodester Online Food Ordering System 1.0. The root cause is a lack of server-side input validation in the 'save_product' function within '/Actions.php'. A remote attacker with low-level privileges (authenticated as an administrator) can submit a crafted POST request to the 'price' parameter containing a negative numerical value. Because the application fails to verify that prices are positive, the database accepts the invalid data. This results in corrupted financial logic where purchasing such items could deduct from a customer's total bill. A public proof-of-concept (PoC) is available.
