CVE-2025-24728
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 Yannick Lefebvre Bug Library bug-library allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects Bug Library: from n/a through <= 2.1.4.
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 confidenceThis is a Blind SQL Injection vulnerability in the Bug Library plugin (versions <= 2.1.4) where user-supplied input is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries. Attackers can inject malicious SQL statements through unprotected parameters to extract data from the database indirectly through boolean-based or time-based inference techniques.

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 if Bug Library is installedCheck your web server for the Bug Library application files (typically in the web root directory, look for files like buglibrary.asp, default.asp, or a 'buglibrary' folder). Alternatively, check if the application is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS.Affected if Bug Library files are present and the application is accessible on the server.
-
Determine the installed versionLocate the version information file (often version.txt, readme.txt, or within the main DLL/ASP files as a version string). Open the file or view the page source to find the exact version number.Affected if The version is 2.1.4 or lower (any version up to and including 2.1.4).
-
Verify the application is running and accessibleAttempt to access the Bug Library login page or main page via web browser to confirm the application is live and reachable.Affected if The application is accessible over the network and accepts user input through web forms.
-
Identify vulnerable input parametersReview the application source code for parameters that accept user input and are used in SQL queries without proper sanitization. Common locations include search forms, login fields, and ID parameters in URLs.Affected if User-supplied parameters are directly concatenated into SQL queries without parameterized queries or input validation.
-
Confirm database connectivityCheck the application configuration file (often config.asp, web.config, or similar) to verify the database connection string and confirm the application connects to a database.Affected if The application uses a database backend (such as Microsoft SQL Server) and processes SQL queries.
You are affected if Bug Library is installed and accessible, the version is 2.1.4 or below, and the application processes user input through web parameters that are used in SQL queries without proper sanitization.

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 dataReplace all dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements, implement proper input validation and escaping, and apply any available vendor patches. If no patch exists, consider disabling the plugin until a fix is released.
