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
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Mobilteg Mobile Informatics Mikro Hand Terminal - MikroDB allows SQL Injection. This issue affects Mikro Hand Terminal - MikroDB.  NOTE: The vendor did not inform about the completion of the fixing process within the specified time. The CVE will be updated when new information becomes available.

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

SQL injection vulnerability in Mobilteg Mikro Hand Terminal's MikroDB allows attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through unsanitized user input, potentially enabling unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or complete system compromise.

MitigationUntil vendor patch is available, implement input validation/sanitization on all user-supplied data, restrict network access to the device, and consider network segmentation to limit exposure. Assess feasibility of upgrading to a patched version when available.

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 Mobilteg Mikro Hand Terminal in environment
    Locate and inventory all Mobilteg Mikro Hand Terminal devices on the network by reviewing hardware assets, network scans, or device management interfaces
    Affected if The device is present and running MikroDB software
  2. Verify MikroDB database module is enabled
    Access the device management interface and check if the MikroDB component is installed and active
    Affected if MikroDB is enabled and accepting connections
  3. Test user input fields for sanitization
    Submit harmless SQL syntax characters (such as single quotes or semicolons) through MikroDB input forms or API endpoints and observe if the input is rejected, filtered, or causes errors
    Affected if User input is not sanitized and SQL syntax is processed without validation
  4. Review MikroDB configuration for input validation
    Examine MikroDB configuration files or settings for presence of input validation, parameterized queries, or SQL injection protections
    Affected if No input validation or SQL injection protections are configured
  5. Assess network exposure of MikroDB interface
    Determine if the MikroDB management interface is accessible from untrusted networks or the internet by reviewing firewall rules and network access controls
    Affected if The interface is exposed to untrusted networks without authentication barriers
  6. Check for vendor patch availability
    Consult Mobilteg vendor resources or security advisories to confirm whether a patched version of MikroDB has been released
    Affected if A patched version exists but is not installed

The environment is affected if a Mobilteg Mikro Hand Terminal running MikroDB is present and user-supplied input is processed without sanitization or validation.
