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
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in LambertGroup Video Player & FullScreen Video Background universal-video-player-and-bg allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects Video Player & FullScreen Video Background: from n/a through <= 2.4.1.

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 confidence

A blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in the LambertGroup universal-video-player-and-bg plugin (versions up to 2.4.1). Attackers can inject malicious SQL queries through unsanitized input parameters, potentially exfiltrating data from the database via blind injection techniques. The high CVSS score (7.6) reflects the potential for complete confidentiality compromise.

MitigationReplace all dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries or prepared statements, implement strict input validation, and apply the principle of least privilege to database accounts. Upgrade to a patched version if available.

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 plugin installation
    Locate the LambertGroup universal-video-player-and-bg plugin in your CMS/plugin directory (typically /wp-content/plugins/ for WordPress) or check your plugin management interface
    Affected if The plugin is present in the installation
  2. Identify installed version
    Open the main plugin file (often named index.php, main.php, or plugin-name.php) and locate the version declaration in the plugin header comment or version constant
    Affected if The installed version is 2.4.1 or any lower version (the vendor notes versions up to 2.4.1 are affected)
  3. Verify input handling exists
    Search plugin source code for dynamic SQL query construction using variables that could contain user input (look for patterns like $wpdb->prepare with concatenated variables, direct query execution with $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST parameters)
    Affected if The plugin contains SQL queries that accept user-supplied input without proper sanitization or parameterization
  4. Check for vulnerable parameter exposure
    Review the plugin's admin panels, frontend shortcodes, or AJAX endpoints to identify which URL parameters or form inputs are passed to database queries
    Affected if User-accessible parameters (via URL query strings, POST data, or cookies) are used in SQL queries without prepared statements
  5. Inspect database user privileges
    Examine the database user credentials configured in the plugin's database connection (wp-config.php for WordPress or config files for other platforms) to determine if the application database user has unnecessary privileges beyond SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
    Affected if The database user has elevated privileges (such as DROP, CREATE, or file permissions) which could amplify the impact of SQL injection

You are affected if the LambertGroup universal-video-player-and-bg plugin versions 2.4.1 or lower is installed and user-controlled input reaches unsanitized SQL query execution points in the plugin code
