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.
-
Confirm PHPGurukul Old Age Home Management System installationCheck your web server document root for folders or files indicating PHPGurukul Old Age Home Management System. Look for version indicators in any README, version.php, or aboutus.php files.Affected if The application installed is PHPGurukul Old Age Home Management System version 1.0 exactly
-
Verify vulnerable login file existsLocate and inspect the file at /admin/login.php in your web server's application directory. Confirm the file is present and accessible via HTTP.Affected if The file /admin/login.php exists in the application and is web-accessible
-
Check for SQL query handling in login processingExamine the source code of /admin/login.php and locate the SQL query that processes the Username parameter. Look for direct concatenation of user input into SQL queries without prepared statements or parameter binding.Affected if The Username parameter from the login form is used directly in SQL queries without parameterized queries (prepared statements)
-
Verify admin interface is accessibleAttempt to access the login page at /admin/login.php via HTTP/HTTPS to confirm the vulnerable endpoint is reachable.Affected if The /admin/login.php page loads and accepts user input in a Username field
If PHPGurukul Old Age Home Management System 1.0 is installed and the /admin/login.php file processes the Username parameter via direct SQL string concatenation, the environment is affected by CVE-2025-3351.

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 direct SQL query concatenation with parameterized queries (PDO prepared statements) for the Username parameter, implement input validation, and ensure the database application user has minimal required privileges.
