CVE-2025-14314
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 · uneditedImproper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in Roxnor PopupKit popup-builder-block allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects PopupKit: from n/a through <= 2.1.5.
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 · moderate confidenceA blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Roxnor PopupKit plugin's popup-builder-block component due to improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. This allows authenticated attackers to inject malicious SQL queries through unsanitized input.

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.
-
Identify PopupKit plugin installationLocate the Roxnor PopupKit plugin files in your CMS/plugin directory. Check the plugin's main file or manifest for the installed version number.Affected if The installed version is older than the patched version (compare against the vendor's security advisory).
-
Verify popup-builder-block component is activeCheck your site's active components, blocks, or modules list to confirm the popup-builder-block from PopupKit is enabled or used on any page.Affected if The popup-builder-block component is enabled or present in your configuration.
-
Inspect database query handling in popup-builder-blockExamine the source code files for the popup-builder-block component, specifically looking for SQL query construction that uses unsanitized user input (e.g., direct string concatenation with $_POST, $_GET, or request parameters).Affected if SQL queries in the component accept user input without parameterized queries, prepared statements, or input sanitization.
-
Review database access logs for suspicious patternsCheck database logs (e.g., MySQL general query log, PostgreSQL logs) for unusual or injected SQL syntax from authenticated user sessions, particularly involving UNION, SLEEP, BENCHMARK, or conditional time-based delays.Affected if Database logs show SQL injection payloads or unexpected SQL structures originating from popup-builder-block requests.
-
Audit user permissions and authenticationDetermine if the application allows authenticated users (any privilege level) to access or interact with the popup-builder-block functionality.Affected if Authenticated users with limited privileges can access the vulnerable component.
Your environment is affected if the Roxnor PopupKit plugin is installed with the popup-builder-block enabled and the code contains unsanitized SQL queries that accept user input.

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 dataUpdate PopupKit to the latest version when available. If no patch exists, locate and remediate the vulnerable code by implementing parameterized queries or proper input sanitization for all SQL operations.
