CVE-2022-50895
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 · uneditedAero CMS 0.0.1 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the author parameter that allows attackers to manipulate database queries. Attackers can exploit boolean-based, error-based, time-based, and UNION query techniques to extract sensitive database information and potentially compromise the system.
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 confidenceAero CMS 0.0.1 is vulnerable to SQL injection via the author parameter. Attackers can inject malicious SQL queries using boolean-based, error-based, time-based, or UNION techniques to manipulate database queries, potentially exposing sensitive data or executing arbitrary code on the underlying system.

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 Aero CMS installation and versionLocate the Aero CMS installation directory and check for version indicators such as a version.php file, admin panel about page, or meta tags in the page source displaying the version numberAffected if The installed version is Aero CMS 0.0.1
-
Verify author parameter exposureInspect application requests that contain an author parameter (typically in search, user profiles, or author bio sections) and confirm the parameter accepts user-supplied input without apparent sanitizationAffected if The author parameter accepts direct user input and is used in database queries
-
Test for SQL injection vulnerabilitySubmit a benign SQL payload in the author parameter such as a single quote or a boolean-based test like author=test' OR '1'='1 to observe if database errors are returned or the query behavior changesAffected if The application returns database errors or displays unexpected data based on SQL injection payloads in the author parameter
You are affected if Aero CMS version 0.0.1 is installed and the author parameter accepts user input that influences SQL queries without proper parameterization.

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.
From vendor dataReplace dynamic SQL query construction with parameterized queries or prepared statements throughout the application, particularly in all code paths handling the author parameter input.
