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
SQL injection vulnerability in vipshop Saturn v.3.5.1 and before allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code via /console/dashboard/executorCount?zkClusterKey component.

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 vipshop Saturn v3.5.1 and prior versions in the /console/dashboard/executorCount endpoint via the zkClusterKey parameter allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of vipshop Saturn beyond v3.5.1; if immediate upgrade is not feasible, implement input validation and parameterized queries as compensating controls.

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 vipshop Saturn installation
    Locate the Saturn application by checking for running processes, web server document roots, or service directories named 'saturn' or containing Saturn-related JAR/WAR files. Look for the console interface typically accessible on port 8080 or configured web server ports.
    Affected if vipshop Saturn software is found running in the environment
  2. Check Saturn version
    Locate the version file or JAR manifest in the Saturn installation directory. Common locations include VERSION files, build metadata in WAR/JAR files, or the startup banner output. Compare the installed version to v3.5.1 - versions 3.5.1 and earlier are affected.
    Affected if Installed version is v3.5.1 or any earlier version of vipshop Saturn
  3. Verify vulnerable endpoint exists
    Check if the /console/dashboard/executorCount endpoint is accessible by attempting a request to the application. This endpoint processes the zkClusterKey parameter and should exist in affected versions.
    Affected if The /console/dashboard/executorCount endpoint responds and accepts the zkClusterKey parameter without authentication
  4. Review application logs for exploitation signs
    Search application and database logs for suspicious SQL patterns in requests to /console/dashboard/executorCount, especially UNION-based injections, OR 1=1 patterns, or unexpected zkClusterKey values containing SQL keywords.
    Affected if Log analysis reveals SQL injection attempts or successful exploitation against the zkClusterKey parameter

The environment is affected if vipshop Saturn version 3.5.1 or earlier is installed and the /console/dashboard/executorCount endpoint is accessible without authentication.
