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 vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in code-projects Simple Admin Panel 1.0. This affects an unknown part. The manipulation of the argument c_name leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

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 code-projects Simple Admin Panel 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries via the c_name parameter. The lack of proper input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to manipulate database queries, potentially exfiltrating, modifying, or deleting sensitive data.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements and implement proper input validation on the c_name parameter and all user-supplied inputs.

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 Code Projects Simple Admin Panel is installed
    Search your web server directories for files or folders named 'Simple Admin Panel', 'admin', or check your web application inventory for this specific product name
    Affected if The application is present on your system and accessible via web
  2. Verify the installed version is 1.0
    Check the application's version information in the source code, README file, or administration interface. Look for version metadata in header comments or configuration files
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0
  3. Locate the vulnerable endpoint handling c_name parameter
    Examine the application source code for HTTP requests that accept a 'c_name' parameter, typically in search, filter, or category-related functionality
    Affected if The application processes user input via a c_name parameter in any request
  4. Inspect the database query code for the c_name parameter
    Review the backend code that handles the c_name parameter. Look for SQL queries where c_name is directly concatenated or embedded without using prepared statements or parameter binding
    Affected if The c_name parameter is used in SQL queries without parameterized queries or input sanitization

A user is affected if they are running Code Projects Simple Admin Panel version 1.0 and the application exposes functionality that processes user-supplied input through the c_name parameter in unsanitized SQL queries.
