In this scenario, the Integrity aspect of the CIA triad has been broken. Integrity refers to the accuracy and trustworthiness of data. The ability to change the price of a book from $19.99 to $1.99 implies that the system's data (in this case, the price) has been altered inappropriately, which violates the principle of integrity.
