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 CWE-89 "Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')" in maxprofile/menu/model.lua (editUserGroupMenu endpoint) in Q-Free MaxTime less than or equal to version 2.11.0 allows an authenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands via crafted HTTP requests.

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 editUserGroupMenu endpoint of Q-Free MaxTime (versions <= 2.11.0) allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands through unsanitized input in the maxprofile/menu/model.lua file.

MitigationUpgrade to a version greater than 2.11.0, or implement parameterized queries/prepared statements in the affected endpoint to neutralize SQL special characters in user 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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify MaxTime installation version
    Locate the version information for your Q-Free MaxTime installation. This is typically found in the application itself, an about page, installation files, or version logs. Common locations include the web interface header/footer, a /about endpoint, or version metadata files in the installation directory.
    Affected if The installed version is 2.11.0 or any earlier version (anything <= 2.11.0)
  2. Verify presence of vulnerable file
    Check if the file maxprofile/menu/model.lua exists in your MaxTime installation directory. This file contains the editUserGroupMenu endpoint handler.
    Affected if The file exists and the application version is <= 2.11.0
  3. Confirm endpoint accessibility
    Determine if the editUserGroupMenu endpoint is accessible on your MaxTime server. This endpoint typically handles menu configuration for user groups and is accessed via the web interface.
    Affected if The endpoint is exposed and the installation is version <= 2.11.0
  4. Check authentication configuration
    Review your MaxTime authentication settings to determine what users have access to the editUserGroupMenu functionality. The vulnerability requires an authenticated session to exploit.
    Affected if Authenticated users with menu configuration privileges exist and the version is <= 2.11.0

Your environment is affected if Q-Free MaxTime version is 2.11.0 or lower AND the editUserGroupMenu endpoint in maxprofile/menu/model.lua is accessible to authenticated users.

dbcve · scoped
Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 2.11.0
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to a version greater than 2.11.0, or implement parameterized queries/prepared statements in the affected endpoint to neutralize SQL special characters in user input.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Any version higher than 2.11.0 (contact Q-Free for the specific fixed release)

  1. 1. Verify current MaxTime installation version by checking the application interface or system documentation
  2. 2. Confirm the installation is version 2.11.0 or below, which is affected by CVE-2025-26346
  3. 3. Contact Q-Free support or check official Q-Free channels for the latest stable release that includes the fix for this SQL injection vulnerability
  4. 4. Plan maintenance window for the upgrade procedure
  5. 5. Perform a full backup of the MaxTime database and configuration before upgrading
  6. 6. Upgrade MaxTime to a version higher than 2.11.0 (the fixed release)
  7. 7. After upgrade, verify the editUserGroupMenu endpoint is accessible and functional
  8. 8. Validate that the SQL injection vulnerability is remediated by confirming the fix is applied
