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
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in the “reporter events type date” feature of the ScienceLogic SL1 that takes unsanitized user‐controlled input and passes it directly to a SQL query. This allows for the injection of arbitrary SQL before being executed against the database.

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 confidence

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in ScienceLogic SL1's 'reporter events type date' feature. The application takes user-controlled input and passes it directly to a SQL query without sanitization or parameterization, allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands that are executed against the database.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries (prepared statements) for all database operations in the affected feature, ensuring user input is never directly concatenated into SQL queries. Validate and sanitize all user inputs as an additional defense layer.

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 if ScienceLogic SL1 is present
    Locate SL1 installation directories or check system inventory for ScienceLogic SL1 software
    Affected if ScienceLogic SL1 is found on the system
  2. Check installed SL1 version
    Use the system version check command or review SL1 version file to determine the exact version number
    Affected if Installed version is 11.1.2 or lower
  3. Verify reporter events type date feature accessibility
    Identify if the 'reporter events type date' feature is enabled and accessible via the SL1 web interface or API endpoint
    Affected if The feature is accessible and the system is running a vulnerable version (11.1.2 or lower)
  4. Inspect web application logs for SQL injection attempts
    Review SL1 web server logs for unusual SQL syntax, unexpected quotation marks, or SQL keywords in requests targeting the reporter events endpoint
    Affected if Evidence of malicious SQL injection payloads exists in the logs for this feature
  5. Check database query logs for anomalies
    Examine database audit logs for unparameterized queries or unexpected SQL structures originating from the reporter events type date functionality
    Affected if Unparameterized SQL queries are being executed by the application

A system is affected if it runs ScienceLogic SL1 version 11.1.2 or lower and has the reporter events type date feature accessible, particularly if SQL injection patterns appear in logs or unparameterized queries are observed.
