# CVE-2026-32888: Open Source Point of Sale is Vulnerable to SQL Injection Through its Item Search Functionality

- Severity: CVSS 8.8 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=poc, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-03-20 · Updated: 2026-03-25

## Affected

- opensourcepos: through 3.4.1

## Description

Open Source Point of Sale is a web based point-of-sale application written in PHP using CodeIgniter framework. Versions contain an SQL Injection in the Items search functionality. When the custom attribute search feature is enabled (search_custom filter), user-supplied input from the search GET parameter is interpolated directly into a HAVING clause without parameterization or sanitization. This allows an authenticated attacker with basic item search permissions to execute arbitrary SQL queries. A patch did not exist at the time of publication.
