CVE-2024-58308
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 · uneditedQuick.CMS 6.7 contains a SQL injection vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass login authentication by manipulating the login form. Attackers can inject specific SQL payloads like ' or '1'='1 to gain unauthorized administrative access to 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 confidenceQuick.CMS 6.7 has a SQL injection vulnerability in the login form where unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication by injecting SQL payloads like ' or '1'='1 into login form fields, allowing unauthorized administrative access to the 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.
-
Confirm Quick.CMS installation versionLocate the version file or header in your Quick.CMS installation (typically in a config or index file). Common methods: check the admin dashboard for version info, or view the source of any page for a meta generator tag.Affected if The installed version is exactly 6.7 (no patches applied)
-
Verify login page accessibilityNavigate to the login URL of your Quick.CMS installation (commonly /admin/ or a login form on the front end). Confirm the page loads and accepts username/password credentials.Affected if The login form is accessible without authentication (unauthenticated attackers can reach it)
-
Identify the login authentication code fileIn your Quick.CMS installation directory, locate the file that handles login authentication. Common locations include: a file named login.php, auth.php, or a function handling user authentication in an includes or lib folder.Affected if You find an authentication handler file that processes login form submissions
-
Check for vulnerable SQL string concatenation in auth codeOpen the login authentication file and examine the SQL query construction. Look for patterns where user-supplied credentials (username/password) are directly concatenated into a SQL string without using parameterized queries or prepared statements. Search for patterns like: $sSQL = "SELECT ... WHERE user = '" . $username . "'" or similar dynamic string building.Affected if The code constructs SQL queries by directly concatenating user input into the query string without parameterized queries or escaping functions
You are affected if you are running Quick.CMS version 6.7 with an accessible login form that uses direct SQL string concatenation for authentication queries.

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 dataUpgrade to a patched version of Quick.CMS that addresses the SQL injection vulnerability, or implement proper input validation and parameterized queries/Prepared Statements in the authentication logic to prevent SQL injection attacks.
