CVE-2025-40623
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 · uneditedSQL injection in TCMAN's GIM v11. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to inject an SQL statement to obtain, update and delete all information in the database. This vulnerability was found in each of the following parameters according to the vulnerability identifier ‘Sender’ and “email” parameters of the ‘createNotificationAndroid’ endpoint.
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 confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in TCMAN GIM v11's createNotificationAndroid endpoint allows unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL statements through the 'Sender' and 'email' parameters, enabling full database compromise including read, write, and delete operations.

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 TCMAN GIM installation and versionLocate the TCMAN GIM installation directory and check the version file or system information. Common locations include /opt/tcmangim, /usr/local/tcmangim, or check via the application's about/version page if available.Affected if The installed version is exactly 11.0 (version 11.0)
-
Locate the createNotificationAndroid endpointIdentify the web application endpoint paths for TCMAN GIM. This endpoint typically handles Android push notification creation. Check web server configuration files (e.g., Apache, Nginx, IIS) or application routing configuration for paths containing createNotificationAndroid.Affected if The createNotificationAndroid endpoint is exposed and accessible via HTTP/HTTPS
-
Verify parameter exposureExamine the application's request handling for the createNotificationAndroid endpoint. Check if the 'Sender' and 'email' parameters are accepted and processed without proper parameterization. Review the application's parameter handling logic or API documentation.Affected if The 'Sender' and 'email' parameters are accepted by the createNotificationAndroid endpoint without being passed through parameterized queries or prepared statements
-
Review application and database logsInspect application logs and database query logs for suspicious or unexpected SQL syntax in requests targeting the createNotificationAndroid endpoint. Look for SQL error messages, unusual query patterns, or time-based blind SQL injection indicators.Affected if Logs show SQL injection attempts or successful exploitation indicators against the Sender or email parameters
Your environment is affected if you are running TCMAN GIM version 11.0 with the createNotificationAndroid endpoint exposed and the Sender/email parameters processed through dynamic SQL rather than parameterized queries.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
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 dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries or prepared statements in the createNotificationAndroid endpoint for both Sender and email parameters; apply input validation and sanitization as defense-in-depth; implement principle of least privilege on database accounts.
