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
Imaster's MEMS Events CRM contains an SQL injection vulnerability in‘keyword’ parameter in ‘/memsdemo/exchange_offers.php’.

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 · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in Imaster's MEMS Events CRM allows remote attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through the 'keyword' parameter in '/memsdemo/exchange_offers.php'. This could enable unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or modification of backend data.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries (prepared statements) for the 'keyword' parameter, implement strict input validation, and ensure database accounts use the principle of least privilege.

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. Confirm Imaster MEMS Events CRM installation
    Locate the application installation directory and identify the product name and version from installation manifests, headers, or the application's main page. Check for directories or files associated with MEMS Events CRM.
    Affected if The product Imaster MEMS Events CRM is installed and the version is within the affected range (if known) or unpatched.
  2. Verify exchange_offers.php exists
    Search for the file /memsdemo/exchange_offers.php in the web root or application directory. Use file system search commands (find, dir) or review the deployed file structure.
    Affected if The file /memsdemo/exchange_offers.php exists in the deployment.
  3. Inspect keyword parameter handling
    Review the source code of exchange_offers.php and locate the handling of the 'keyword' parameter. Check if user input is directly concatenated into SQL queries without using parameterized queries (prepared statements) or proper escaping.
    Affected if The 'keyword' parameter is used in dynamic SQL queries without parameterized query implementation.
  4. Check application network exposure
    Verify if the MEMS Events CRM application is accessible over the network. Test connectivity to the /memsdemo/exchange_offers.php endpoint from external locations or confirm the application listens on network interfaces beyond localhost.
    Affected if The application is network-accessible and the vulnerable endpoint can be reached remotely.

You are affected if Imaster MEMS Events CRM is installed with the vulnerable /memsdemo/exchange_offers.php file, and the 'keyword' parameter handling uses dynamic SQL queries instead of parameterized queries, especially if the endpoint is network-accessible.
