CVE-2014-2948
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 workflowenginesoa.asmx in Bizagi BPM Suite through 10.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via a crafted SOAP request.
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 workflowenginesoa.asmx SOAP web service endpoint in Bizagi BPM Suite through version 10.4 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via crafted SOAP request parameters.

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 Bizagi BPM Suite installation and versionLocate the Bizagi installation directory and check the version file or product information. Common locations include C:\Program Files\Bizagi or the IIS web root where Bizagi is deployed.Affected if The installed version is 10.0, 10.0.1, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, or any version up to and including 10.4.
-
Verify the workflowenginesoa.asmx endpoint is exposedCheck if the SOAP endpoint file workflowenginesoa.asmx exists in the web application directory. This is typically found under the Bizagi web root path such as /WebServices/workflowenginesoa.asmx or /Soap/workflowenginesoa.asmx.Affected if The workflowenginesoa.asmx file is present and accessible via HTTP/HTTPS on the server.
-
Confirm SOAP web services are enabledAttempt to access the asmx endpoint via a web browser or curl request to retrieve the WSDL. For example: http[s]://[server]/[bizagi_path]/workflowenginesoa.asmx or http[s]://[server]/[bizagi_path]/Soap/workflowenginesoa.asmxAffected if The endpoint responds and returns a service description page or WSDL, indicating SOAP services are active.
-
Check authentication configuration on the endpointReview the web.config file in the Bizagi web directory for the asmx handler configuration. Verify whether anonymous access is permitted or if authentication is required for the SOAP endpoints.Affected if The endpoint allows unauthenticated access or uses weak authentication that could be bypassed, or if valid user credentials can be obtained to send SOAP requests.
A user is affected if they run Bizagi BPM Suite version 10.4 or below with the workflowenginesoa.asmx SOAP endpoint exposed and accessible, regardless of authentication status, as the vulnerability can be exploited by authenticated users.

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 dataUpgrade Bizagi BPM Suite to a patched version beyond 10.4; alternatively, implement strict input validation and parameterized queries on the affected SOAP endpoint and apply least-privilege database access controls for the application service account.
