CVE-2014-3366
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 administrative web interface in Cisco Unified Communications Manager allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via a crafted response, aka Bug ID CSCup88089.
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.

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 if Cisco Unified Communications Manager is installedCheck for CUCM-related processes or services running on the system, or review installed software listings for Cisco Unified Communications Manager or CUCM componentsAffected if Cisco Unified Communications Manager is present on the system
-
Determine if the administrative web interface is accessibleCheck if ports used by CUCM admin interface (typically 8443, 443, or 8080) are listening and reachable on the system or networkAffected if The administrative web interface is exposed and reachable
-
Verify network access to the admin web interfaceAssess whether the CUCM admin interface is accessible from untrusted networks or externally, rather than only from trusted management networksAffected if The admin interface can be accessed from networks outside the trusted administrative zone
-
Confirm authentication is enabled for the web interfaceVerify that the CUCM admin web interface requires authentication (this is required for the SQL injection to be exploitable)Affected if Authentication is required to access the admin interface (which is the normal configuration, making the flaw exploitable by any valid credential holder)
-
Check for security patchesContact Cisco support or review CUCM system status to determine if patches for CSCup88089 have been appliedAffected if Patches for CSCup88089 have not been applied to the installed CUCM version
The environment is affected if Cisco Unified Communications Manager is installed, its administrative web interface is accessible (even to authenticated users only), and the CSCup88089 patches have not been applied.

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 dataApply Cisco security patches for Bug ID CSCup88089; if unavailable, restrict administrative web interface access to trusted networks and implement strict input validation at the application layer.
