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 weakness has been identified in Campcodes Advanced Online Voting Management System 1.0. This affects an unknown function of the file /admin/candidates_edit.php. This manipulation of the argument ID causes sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be exploited.

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 Campcodes Advanced Online Voting Management System 1.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via the ID parameter in /admin/candidates_edit.php. The lack of input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to manipulate database queries.

MitigationImplement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all database operations in candidates_edit.php, or apply vendor-supplied patch. Consider input validation and Web Application Firewall as additional layers.

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 installed product and version
    Locate the application installation directory and check for version indicators such as version files, about pages, or footer version strings. Compare against version 1.0.
    Affected if The application is Campcodes Advanced Online Voting System version 1.0
  2. Verify vulnerable script exists
    Check if the file /admin/candidates_edit.php exists in the web root or application directory.
    Affected if The file /admin/candidates_edit.php is present in the installation
  3. Confirm admin interface is accessible
    Attempt to access the /admin/ directory or candidates_edit.php via HTTP/HTTPS to verify the application is running and the endpoint is reachable.
    Affected if The /admin/candidates_edit.php endpoint is accessible over the network
  4. Check for parameterized queries in source
    Inspect the source code of candidates_edit.php and search for SQL query patterns. Look for whether the ID parameter is used in raw SQL concatenation versus prepared statements or parameter binding.
    Affected if The ID parameter is directly concatenated into SQL queries without sanitization or parameter binding

You are affected if you are running Campcodes Advanced Online Voting System version 1.0 and the /admin/candidates_edit.php file is accessible without having implemented input sanitization or parameterized queries for the ID parameter.
