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
Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in GroundWork Monitor Enterprise 6.7.0 allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via (1) nedi/html/System-Export.php, (2) nedi/html/Devices-List.php, or (3) the Noma component.

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 · high confidence

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in GroundWork Monitor Enterprise 6.7.0 allow remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via three attack vectors: nedi/html/System-Export.php, nedi/html/Devices-List.php, and the Noma component. The CVSS 6.5 indicates network-exploitable flaws requiring authentication but with moderate attack complexity.

MitigationRemediate by implementing parameterized queries or prepared statements in the affected PHP files (System-Export.php, Devices-List.php) and Noma component to neutralize SQL injection vectors, or apply vendor-supplied patches if available.

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. Identify GroundWork Monitor installation and version
    Locate the GroundWork Monitor installation directory and check the version file or about page, typically found in the web interface or installation logs
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 6.7.0
  2. Verify presence of vulnerable nedi component
    Check for the existence of the nedi/html/ directory under the GroundWork web root and list its contents
    Affected if The directory nedi/html/ exists and contains System-Export.php and Devices-List.php
  3. Inspect System-Export.php for injection vulnerability
    Examine the file nedi/html/System-Export.php for unsanitized SQL query parameters; look for direct use of $_GET or $_POST variables in SQL statements without prepared statements or escaping
    Affected if The file contains SQL queries that incorporate user-supplied parameters without parameterization
  4. Inspect Devices-List.php for injection vulnerability
    Examine the file nedi/html/Devices-List.php for unsanitized SQL query parameters; look for direct use of $_GET or $_POST variables in SQL statements without prepared statements or escaping
    Affected if The file contains SQL queries that incorporate user-supplied parameters without parameterization
  5. Verify Noma component presence
    Locate the Noma component within the GroundWork installation, typically in the web directory structure, and inspect its PHP files for unsanitized SQL queries
    Affected if The Noma component is installed and contains PHP files with direct SQL query construction using user input

A system is affected if it runs GroundWork Monitor Enterprise version 6.7.0 with the nedi/html/System-Export.php, nedi/html/Devices-List.php, or Noma component accessible via the web interface.

Mitigation

Remediate by implementing parameterized queries or prepared statements in the affected PHP files (System-Export.php, Devices-List.php) and Noma component to neutralize SQL injection vectors, or apply vendor-supplied patches if available.
