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 classified as critical has been found in JoeyBling bootplus up to 247d5f6c209be1a5cf10cd0fa18e1d8cc63cf55d. This affects an unknown part of the file /admin/sys/user/list. The manipulation of the argument sort leads to sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. This product takes the approach of rolling releases to provide continious delivery. Therefore, version details for affected and updated releases are not 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 · high confidence

A critical SQL injection vulnerability exists in JoeyBling bootplus admin panel. The 'sort' parameter in the /admin/sys/user/list endpoint is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL code. The exploit is publicly available.

MitigationApply input validation and parameterized queries to the sort parameter immediately. Monitor for indicators of compromise given public exploit availability. Once the vendor releases an updated rolling-release version, deploy it promptly.

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 JoeyBling Bootplus installation
    Locate the Bootplus application files or check the application's version information as displayed in the admin panel interface
    Affected if Bootplus admin panel is present and the version displays as 2020-08-24 or earlier
  2. Verify the vulnerable endpoint exists
    Check if the application serves the /admin/sys/user/list endpoint by reviewing the web server configuration or attempting to access the URL (if authorized)
    Affected if The endpoint /admin/sys/user/list is present and accessible within the application
  3. Confirm admin panel is exposed
    Review network configuration and access controls to determine if the /admin/* routes are reachable from network locations beyond trusted admin workstations
    Affected if The admin panel is accessible from network segments outside the trusted administrative zone
  4. Check for indicators of compromise
    Review web server access logs and application logs for requests to /admin/sys/user/list containing SQL operators (UNION, SELECT, INSERT, DROP, --, ;, ') in the sort parameter
    Affected if Log analysis reveals suspicious SQL injection patterns in the sort parameter against the user list endpoint
  5. Audit user accounts for unauthorized changes
    Query the underlying database or application user management to check for unexpected administrative accounts or modifications to existing user records
    Affected if Unexpected administrative accounts exist or user records show unauthorized modifications

A user is affected if JoeyBling Bootplus version 2020-08-24 or earlier is installed, the admin panel is accessible, and the /admin/sys/user/list endpoint is present with the vulnerable sort parameter.
