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 ‘phone’ parameter in ‘/memsdemo/login.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 queries through the 'phone' parameter in /memsdemo/login.php, potentially enabling unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or authentication bypass.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries (prepared statements) for all database operations involving user input, particularly the 'phone' parameter. Apply input validation and output encoding as defense-in-depth measures.

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 MEMS Events CRM installation
    Search the web server for files or directories containing 'mems', 'crm', or 'imaster' in the document root or application directories. Check for the presence of the /memsdemo/login.php file.
    Affected if The MEMS Events CRM application by Imaster is present on the system, particularly if /memsdemo/login.php exists.
  2. Locate the login.php file
    Inspect the web server document root for the path /memsdemo/login.php. If using a web scanner, enumerate directories for 'memsdemo' or similar naming patterns.
    Affected if The file /memsdemo/login.php is found and accessible via the web server.
  3. Check application version
    Examine version information in the application source code, configuration files, or footer/header templates. Look for version strings in comments, meta tags, or specific MEMS Events CRM version files. Compare against any known affected version ranges.
    Affected if The installed version of MEMS Events CRM matches or falls within the affected version range, or the version cannot be determined.
  4. Inspect the phone parameter handling
    Review the source code of /memsdemo/login.php to see how the 'phone' parameter is handled in database queries. Look for direct string concatenation or lack of prepared statements/parameterized queries when inserting the phone input into SQL statements.
    Affected if The 'phone' parameter is used in SQL queries without parameterized queries, prepared statements, or proper input sanitization.
  5. Test for SQL injection vulnerability
    Send a crafted request to /memsdemo/login.php with the phone parameter containing SQL injection payloads (e.g., single quotes, OR 1=1, UNION-based payloads). Observe if the application returns database errors or behaves differently than expected.
    Affected if The application returns SQL syntax errors, database error messages, or exhibits unexpected behavior when special SQL characters are submitted in the phone parameter.

A system is affected if it runs Imaster's MEMS Events CRM with the /memsdemo/login.php endpoint where the phone parameter is handled in SQL queries without prepared statements.
