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 was identified in itsourcecode Open Source Job Portal 1.0. This affects an unknown function of the file /jobportal/admin/login.php. Such manipulation of the argument user_email leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might 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 · high confidence

Unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability in itsourcecode Open Source Job Portal 1.0 at /jobportal/admin/login.php via the user_email parameter allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands, likely enabling authentication bypass and potential full database compromise.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries (prepared statements) for all database operations in login.php, specifically binding the user_email parameter; apply input validation and escaping; ensure database user follows least privilege principles; consider WAF deployment as defense-in-depth.

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 the installed Job Portal product and version
    Locate the application files and check for version identifiers in the source code, configuration files, or documentation. The vulnerable product is Angeljudesuarez Open Source Job Portal version 1.0 (also distributed as itsourcecode Open Source Job Portal 1.0).
    Affected if The installed product is Angeljudesuarez or itsourcecode Open Source Job Portal version 1.0 exactly.
  2. Verify the vulnerable login.php file exists
    Check if the file /jobportal/admin/login.php exists in the web application directory. This is the specific path mentioned in the CVE.
    Affected if The file /jobportal/admin/login.php is present in the installation.
  3. Confirm the user_email parameter is in use
    Examine the login.php source code to verify that it accepts a user_email parameter (typically as part of a login form with POST or GET method).
    Affected if The login.php file processes a user_email parameter from user input.
  4. Check if parameterized queries are implemented
    Review the login.php source code for database query patterns. Look specifically for uses of mysqli_prepare, PDO::prepare, or similar prepared statement functions that bind the user_email parameter. Also check for direct string concatenation in SQL queries.
    Affected if The code uses direct string concatenation or unchecked variables in SQL queries with the user_email parameter rather than prepared statements with bound parameters.
  5. Verify admin interface is network-accessible
    Confirm the /jobportal/admin/ path is reachable from the network without authentication. The CVE notes this is an unauthenticated vulnerability.
    Affected if The admin login page at /jobportal/admin/login.php is accessible without prior authentication.

A user is affected if they have Angeljudesuarez or itsourcecode Open Source Job Portal version 1.0 installed with the /jobportal/admin/login.php file accessible and the code does not use parameterized queries for the user_email parameter.

Mitigation

Implement parameterized queries (prepared statements) for all database operations in login.php, specifically binding the user_email parameter; apply input validation and escaping; ensure database user follows least privilege principles; consider WAF deployment as defense-in-depth.
