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
Weaver Ecology v9.* was discovered to contain a SQL injection vulnerability via the component /mobilemode/Action.jsp?invoker=com.weaver.formmodel.mobile.mec.servlet.MECAction&action=getFieldTriggerValue&searchField=*&fromTable=HrmResourceManager&whereClause=1%3d1&triggerCondition=1&expression=%3d&fieldValue=1.

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

SQL injection vulnerability in Weaver Ecology v9.* allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands via the whereClause parameter in /mobilemode/Action.jsp. The vulnerable endpoint passes user-supplied input directly into SQL query construction without proper parameterization or input validation, enabling complete database compromise.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries or prepared statements for database operations, apply strict input validation on the whereClause and related parameters, and deploy a WAF as a temporary compensating control while the code fix is developed.

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. Confirm Weaver Ecology installation
    Locate the Weaver Ecology application directory or check running web services for Weaverbased deployments. Look for ECOLOGY or Ecology-related process names and application folders.
    Affected if Weaver Ecology software is present on the system
  2. Identify installed version
    Check the application version file, banner, or admin interface for the exact version number. Common locations include version.properties, about page, or HTTP server headers.
    Affected if Version is 8.0 or 9.0 exactly (or falls within the 8.0-9.0 range if the notation indicates a range)
  3. Verify vulnerable endpoint exists
    Check if the /mobilemode/Action.jsp endpoint is accessible by attempting a GET request to the path on the Ecology web server.
    Affected if The /mobilemode/Action.jsp endpoint responds (returns HTTP 200 or other valid response)
  4. Inspect parameter handling of whereClause
    Review application logs or capture a request to /mobilemode/Action.jsp with a whereClause parameter. Examine whether the parameter value appears directly in SQL query logs or debug output without visible sanitization markers.
    Affected if The whereClause parameter is accepted and processed without obvious escaping or parameterized handling visible in logs

A system is affected if it runs Weaver Ecology version 8.0 or 9.0, exposes the /mobilemode/Action.jsp endpoint, and accepts the whereClause parameter without input validation.
