CVE-2008-3054
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedSQL injection vulnerability in the Branchenbuch (aka Yellow Pages o (mh_branchenbuch) extension 0.8.1 and earlier for TYPO3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified vectors.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · moderate confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in the Branchenbuch (mh_branchenbuch) TYPO3 extension versions 0.8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands through unsanitized user input in database queries.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify if mh_branchenbuch extension is installedAccess TYPO3 extension manager or check typo3conf/ext/ for mh_branchenbuch directoryAffected if The mh_branchenbuch directory exists in the extensions folder
-
Check installed version of mh_branchenbuchOpen extension configuration or ext_emconf.php file within the mh_branchenbuch extension directory and locate the version numberAffected if The reported version is 0.8.1 or lower
-
Determine if extension database queries handle user inputReview extension PHP files for database query implementations, specifically look for user-supplied parameters being passed directly to SQL queries without sanitizationAffected if User input parameters are used in SQL queries without prepared statements or input escaping
-
Inspect database for signs of compromiseReview database logs or table records for unexpected entries, unknown admin accounts, or suspicious queries that may indicate exploitationAffected if Unexpected database changes, unknown user accounts, or suspicious query patterns are found
You are affected if the mh_branchenbuch extension is installed and its version is 0.8.1 or earlier, with unescaped user input reaching database queries.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpdate the mh_branchenbuch extension to a patched version if available; otherwise uninstall the extension immediately. Review and sanitize database queries, implement parameterized queries, and audit the application for any signs of compromise.
