CVE-2021-22851
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 · uneditedHGiga EIP product contains SQL Injection vulnerability. Attackers can inject SQL commands into specific URL parameter (document management page) to obtain database schema and data.
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 confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in HGiga EIP product's document management page allows attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through URL parameters, potentially exposing the entire database schema and contents.

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 Hgiga Oaklouds Openid is installedCheck your installed applications or software inventory for Hgiga Oaklouds Openid. Common locations include /opt/hgiga/, C:\Program Files\HGiga\, or consult your system administrator for installation paths.Affected if The software is present on the system
-
Determine the installed versionLocate version information in the product's about page, license file, or version metadata. Typical paths include the installation directory or the application's admin configuration panel. Compare the version number against the affected ranges: 2.0 through 2.0-53, or 3.0 through 3.0-53.Affected if The installed version falls within 2.0 <= version < 2.0-54 or 3.0 <= version < 3.0-54
-
Verify the document management module is accessibleCheck if the document management functionality is enabled in the application. This is typically found in the admin control panel under module management or feature toggles. The vulnerable endpoint is typically accessed via the document management page URL.Affected if The document management module is enabled and accessible to users
-
Inspect access logs for suspicious URL parametersReview web server or application logs for requests to the document management page containing unusual SQL-like characters such as quotes ('), semicolons (;), UNION SELECT, or common SQL injection patterns in URL parameters.Affected if SQL injection patterns are observed in logs for the document management endpoint
You are affected if Hgiga Oaklouds Openid version 2.0 through 2.0-53 or 3.0 through 3.0-53 is installed with the document management module enabled.

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.
dbcve · scoped2.0-543.0-54
Implement parameterized queries/prepared statements for all database operations, apply strict input validation on all user-supplied parameters, and consider deploying a WAF with SQL injection rules as an additional layer of defense.
Oaklouds OpenID version 2.0-54 or 3.0-54 (depending on your current major version)
- Upgrade Oaklouds OpenID version 2.0 to version 2.0-54 or later
- Upgrade Oaklouds OpenID version 3.0 to version 3.0-54 or later
- After upgrading, verify the fix by testing the document management page URL parameter to ensure SQL injection is no longer possible
- Confirm with vendor documentation or security advisories that these specific versions contain the SQL injection fix
