CVE-2025-40657
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 · uneditedA SQL injection vulnerability has been found in DM Corporative CMS. This vulnerability allows an attacker to retrieve, create, update and delete databases through the codform parameter in /modules/forms/collectform.asp.
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 DM Corporative CMS allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands through the codform parameter in /modules/forms/collectform.asp. The critical severity (9.8) stems from the ability to retrieve, create, update, and delete database contents.

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 DM Corporative CMS installation and versionLocate the CMS installation directory and check for version identifiers such as a version file, header metadata, or the CMS admin panel which typically displays the current version number. Compare the installed version against the affected range: versions prior to 2025.01 are vulnerable.Affected if The installed version of Acc Dm Corporative Cms is earlier than 2025.01
-
Verify the vulnerable script existsCheck if the file /modules/forms/collectform.asp exists within the web root or CMS installation directory.Affected if The file collectform.asp exists in the /modules/forms/ directory
-
Confirm the codform parameter handlingInspect the source code of /modules/forms/collectform.asp and locate the code that processes the codform parameter. Look for SQL query construction that directly incorporates the codform parameter value without using parameterized queries or input validation.Affected if The codform parameter is used directly in SQL queries without parameterized statements or input sanitization
The environment is affected if Acc Dm Corporative Cms version is below 2025.01 and the /modules/forms/collectform.asp file contains direct SQL query construction using the codform parameter without prepared statements or validation.

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.
dbcve · scoped2025.01
Implement parameterized queries or prepared statements for the codform parameter in collectform.asp, and add input validation to sanitize user-supplied values before executing SQL queries.
2025.01 or later release
- 1. Check the current installed version of Dm Corporative CMS
- 2. If version is below 2025.01, obtain the 2025.01 or later release from the vendor
- 3. Follow vendor documentation for upgrading the CMS to the latest version
- 4. Verify the upgrade was successful
- 5. Test that the /modules/forms/collectform.asp endpoint is no longer vulnerable to SQL injection via the codform parameter
