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.
-
Identify installed SAMwin product and versionCheck the installed software on the system for 'Samwin Agent' or 'Samwin Contact Center' and note the installed version number. This can be done via Windows Programs and Features, registry keys under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall, or the application's About/Help menu.Affected if The installed version is 5.01.19.06 for Samwin Agent, or 5.1 for Samwin Contact Center.
-
Locate the vulnerable DLL file SAMwinLIBVB.dllSearch the system for the file SAMwinLIBVB.dll. Common installation paths include C:\Program Files\SAMwin\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\SAMwin\. Use Windows Explorer search or the command 'dir /s /b C:\SAMwinLIBVB.dll' (adjust drive letter as needed).Affected if The file SAMwinLIBVB.dll exists on the system and corresponds to the affected product versions.
-
Verify database connectivity is enabledCheck the application's configuration or settings to determine if database connectivity is active. This may involve examining configuration files in the SAMwin installation directory (such as .ini, .xml, or .cfg files) that contain database connection parameters.Affected if The application is configured to connect to a database, as the SQL injection vulnerability exploits the getCurrentDBVersion function in the database handler library.
A system is affected if it runs Samwin Agent version 5.01.19.06 or Samwin Contact Center version 5.1 with the SAMwinLIBVB.dll library present and database connectivity enabled.
