🎯 What: The vulnerability fixed was a loose type comparison (
==) insrc/IsoCodes/VinNA.phpwhere a check digit (an integer or string 'x') was compared against a character from the input VIN.🛡️ Solution: The solution implemented replaces
==with===for strict comparison. Since the calculated$checkdigit can be an integer (e.g., 0-9) and the VIN character$vin[8]is a string character, they are both explicitly cast to(string)before the comparison(string) $check === (string) $vin[8]to ensure strict matching without breaking valid comparisons. The10 == $checkcondition was also updated to10 === $checkfor consistency.PR created automatically by Jules for task 448070248631992280 started by @ronanguilloux
