CVE-2025-41007
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 Cuantis. This vulnerability allows an attacker to retrieve, create, update and delete databases through the 'search' parameter in the '/search.php' 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 Cuantis web application. The 'search' parameter in the '/search.php' endpoint fails to properly sanitize user input, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. This enables full database compromise including the ability to retrieve, insert, update, and delete database records.

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 Cuantis application is deployedIdentify if the Cuantis web application is installed in your environment by locating the application files or checking web server document roots for Cuantis-related directories.Affected if Cuantis web application is present in your environment
-
Verify /search.php endpoint existsCheck if the /search.php endpoint is accessible by attempting to access it via HTTP request or reviewing the application's file structure for search.php.Affected if The /search.php endpoint exists and is accessible in your deployment
-
Inspect source code for 'search' parameter handlingLocate and review the search.php file in your installation. Examine how the 'search' parameter is processed, specifically looking for SQL query construction that directly incorporates the parameter without sanitization.Affected if The search.php file uses the 'search' parameter in SQL queries without proper sanitization or parameterized queries
-
Check for prepared statements or parameterized queriesReview the search.php source code to determine if SQL queries involving the 'search' parameter use prepared statements, parameterized queries, or other secure database access methods.Affected if SQL queries in search.php do not use prepared statements or parameterized queries for the 'search' parameter input
-
Test the parameter for SQL injection susceptibilityIf you have authorization, send a benign SQL injection test payload (such as a single quote) to the 'search' parameter and observe if the application returns SQL syntax errors or unexpected behavior.Affected if The 'search' parameter exhibits SQL injection behavior in response to malicious input
Your environment is affected if the Cuantis application is deployed with the /search.php endpoint and the 'search' parameter is handled using unsanitized dynamic SQL queries 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/prepared statements for the search parameter. Implement strict input validation and consider deploying a Web Application Firewall (WAF) as an interim control.
