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
Digiwin BPM’s function has insufficient validation for user input. An unauthenticated remote attacker can inject arbitrary SQL command to access, modify, delete database or disrupt service.

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

Digiwin BPM contains a SQL injection vulnerability due to insufficient validation of user input in one of its functions. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially allowing complete access, modification, or deletion of database contents, or denial of service.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries or prepared statements for all database operations, add proper input validation and sanitization, and consider deploying a WAF as an additional layer of defense while the code is being remediated.

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 Digiwin BPM installation
    Locate Digiwin BPM on the system by checking for installation directories, services, or the web application's presence. Common paths may include C:\Program Files\Digiwin\BPM or similar. Check Windows Services or Linux service listings for Digiwin BPM processes.
    Affected if Digiwin Business Process Management is found installed on the system
  2. Determine installed version
    Access the Digiwin BPM web interface or check installation directories for version information. Look for an 'About' page, version file, or check the application's header/footer for version display.
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 5.8.8.1
  3. Verify network accessibility
    Determine if the Digiwin BPM web application is exposed to network access by checking listening ports (commonly port 80, 443, or custom ports) and firewall rules.
    Affected if The application is accessible over the network to untrusted users
  4. Review application logs for SQL injection indicators
    Check Digiwin BPM application logs, web server logs, and database audit logs for suspicious SQL patterns, unusual query errors, or evidence of SQL injection attempts.
    Affected if Logs show SQL injection attempts or unusual SQL error messages indicating exploited vulnerability
  5. Check for unauthorized database modifications
    Examine database tables, especially user tables, configuration tables, and business data, for unexpected changes, new accounts, or modified records that could indicate successful exploitation.
    Affected if Database shows unauthorized changes or suspicious records that were not made by legitimate administrators

A system is affected if Digiwin Business Process Management version lower than 5.8.8.1 is installed and accessible, particularly if logs show SQL injection attempts or database integrity has been compromised.
