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 · unedited
SQL injection vulnerability in the Codeon Petition (cd_petition) extension 0.0.2 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 confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in the Codeon Petition (cd_petition) TYPO3 extension 0.0.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified input vectors.

MitigationUpdate cd_petition extension to a patched version; if unavailable, remove the extension. Implement parameterized queries or proper input sanitization on all user-supplied data before SQL execution.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify cd_petition extension is installed
    Log in to TYPO3 backend as administrator, navigate to Extension Manager (Extension > Management), and search for 'cd_petition' or 'petition' in the installed extensions list.
    Affected if The cd_petition extension appears in the installed extensions list.
  2. Check cd_petition extension version
    In the Extension Manager, click on the cd_petition extension entry to view its details. Note the version number displayed (typically shown as 'Version: X.X.X' or similar).
    Affected if The displayed version is 0.0.2 or any version number lower than 0.0.2.
  3. Verify extension is loaded and active
    In the Extension Manager, confirm the extension status shows as 'Loaded' or 'Active'. Also check the backend module list for any 'petition' or 'cd_petition' related modules.
    Affected if The extension shows as loaded or active in the Extension Manager.
  4. Inspect extension directory for presence
    If file system access is available, navigate to the TYPO3 extension directory (typically typo3conf/ext/) and check for a folder named 'cd_petition' or similar variant.
    Affected if A folder matching cd_petition exists in the extensions directory.

The environment is affected if the TYPO3 cd_petition extension is installed, loaded, and its version is 0.0.2 or lower.
