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
GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package. An administrator user can perfom a SQL injection through the rules configuration forms. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.0.18.

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

GLPI versions prior to 10.0.18 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the rules configuration module. An authenticated administrator user can inject malicious SQL commands through form inputs in the rules configuration area, potentially allowing unauthorized data access, modification, or database compromise.

MitigationUpgrade GLPI to version 10.0.18 or later. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict administrative access and monitor database query logs for suspicious activity in the rules configuration section.

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 GLPI installation and version
    Locate the GLPI installation directory and check the version.php or version.json file, or access the GLPI login page footer which typically displays the version number
    Affected if The installed version is 0.78 or higher but lower than 10.0.18
  2. Confirm rules configuration module is active
    Log into GLPI as an administrator and navigate to the Rules configuration section (typically under Setup > Rules), or check the file system for the rules engine module presence
    Affected if The rules configuration module is accessible and active in the GLPI instance
  3. Verify administrator-level access exists
    Check user accounts with administrator privileges in GLPI by examining the user administration panel or the glpi_users database table for profiles with 'admin' or 'super-admin' rights
    Affected if Any authenticated administrator or super-admin user account exists in the system
  4. Review database query logs for suspicious activity
    Examine database logs (MySQL/MariaDB general query log, slow query log, or PostgreSQL logs) for unusual or malformed SQL queries targeting rules-related tables around the time of the rules configuration feature usage
    Affected if Unexpected or injected SQL patterns appear in database query logs related to the rules configuration functionality

The environment is affected if GLPI version is 0.78 or higher but lower than 10.0.18, the rules configuration module is accessible, and an authenticated administrator account exists that could trigger the SQL injection.
