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 found in code-projects Project Monitoring System 1.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file /useredit.php. The manipulation of the argument uid results in sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been made public and could 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

SQL injection vulnerability in the Project Monitoring System 1.0 allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code via the uid parameter in /useredit.php. The lack of proper input sanitization or parameterized queries enables attackers to manipulate database queries.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements for the uid parameter and all user inputs in useredit.php. Apply input validation and output encoding as defense-in-depth measures.

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 if Fabian Project Monitoring System is installed
    Check for the presence of the application directory. Common paths include /var/www/html/, /www/, or C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ on Windows servers. Look for folders containing 'project monitoring' or 'fabian' in the name.
    Affected if The Fabian Project Monitoring System application directory exists on the server.
  2. Confirm the installed version is 1.0
    Locate version information in the application. Check for a version.php file, about.php, or readme.txt within the application root directory. Alternatively, examine the HTML source of any page for version metadata.
    Affected if The application version is exactly 1.0.
  3. Verify the vulnerable file exists
    Check for the presence of /useredit.php in the web root directory of the application. For example, if the app is at /var/www/html/project-monitoring/, verify /var/www/html/project-monitoring/useredit.php exists.
    Affected if The file useredit.php exists in the application directory.
  4. Check if application database is configured and active
    Examine the application configuration file (often config.php, db.php, or settings.php) to verify database credentials are populated and the application is connecting to a database. Attempt to access the application via HTTP to confirm it is running.
    Affected if The application is configured with database credentials and responds to HTTP requests.
  5. Identify if the uid parameter is accessible
    Access the useredit.php page via HTTP request: http://[target]/useredit.php?uid=1 . Observe if the page processes the uid parameter and returns user information or database-related content.
    Affected if The useredit.php page processes the uid parameter and returns database-driven content.

The system is affected if Fabian Project Monitoring System version 1.0 is installed, the useredit.php file exists, and the application is running with an active database connection that processes the uid parameter.
