Fixed in 5.2.10
Recommended fix High confidence

5.2.10

  1. Backup the current Mcms installation and database before proceeding with the upgrade
  2. Download the Mcms version 5.2.10 from the official vendor source (gitee.com or Mingsoft's official channels)
  3. Stop the application server hosting Mcms (e.g., Tomcat, Jetty, or whichever servlet container is in use)
  4. Replace the existing Mcms WAR/JAR file with the version 5.2.10 package
  5. Ensure the database configuration in the application properties or configuration files remains correct
  6. Restart the application server
  7. Verify the application is functioning correctly by accessing the /cms/category/list endpoint
  8. Confirm the SQL injection vulnerability is resolved by testing the sqlWhere parameter with safe input
