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
Emuse - eServices / eNvoice SQL injection can be used in various ways ranging from bypassing login authentication or dumping the whole database to full RCE on the affected endpoints. The SQLi caused by CWE-209: Generation of Error Message Containig Sensetive Information, showing parts of the aspx code and the webroot location , information an attacker can leverage to further compromise the host.

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 confidence

A critical SQL injection vulnerability in Emuse eServices/eNvoice allows attackers to bypass authentication, dump database contents, or achieve remote code execution. The vulnerability stems from improper error handling (CWE-209) that exposes sensitive information including ASPX source code fragments and webroot paths in error messages, providing attackers with valuable reconnaissance data to further compromise the host.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries/prepared statements to eliminate SQL injection vectors, and replace detailed error messages with generic responses while logging sensitive details server-side for debugging only. Consider deploying a WAF as a compensating control during remediation.

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. Confirm Emuse eServices/Envoice is present
    Check your web server for Emuse eServices or Envoice application files, or probe your web application for known Emuse-related paths/endpoints in HTTP responses
    Affected if The application is found running in your environment
  2. Trigger an application error
    Send a malformed request to the application (such as invalid input in parameters, or access to non-existent resources) to elicit an error response
    Affected if The application returns error pages instead of generic HTTP 500 responses
  3. Inspect error message content
    Examine the full error response body for exposed sensitive information: look for fragments of ASPX code (look for <%@, <script runat, or C# code patterns), file path strings (such as C:\inetpub\ or /var/www/), or stack traces
    Affected if Error messages contain ASPX source code fragments, full file system paths, or detailed stack traces that reveal internal application structure

You are affected if Emuse eServices or Envoice is running and returns detailed error messages that expose source code fragments or file system paths to attackers.
