⚠️ A sneaky SQL injection lurks in the Bakeshop Inventory System’s login screen! Imagine if your bakery's order book was open to anyone willing to ask for it. 🍰 Think of it like a bakery that doesn’t check who’s coming through the back door. As long as someone says they’re a delivery person, they could grab any recipe they want without breaking a sweat! With this vulnerability, an attacker could easily manipulate the login process, gaining unauthorized access to the entire system. This means they could view and even alter sensitive inventory data—an absolute nightmare for any bakery trying to keep track of its supplies!
