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

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

The mojoomla Hospital Management System contains an unrestricted file upload vulnerability that allows attackers to upload dangerous file types, specifically web shells, directly to the web server. This enables remote code execution and complete system compromise.

MitigationImplement strict allowlist-based file type validation, restrict upload directories outside webroot, rename uploaded files, and disable script execution permissions on upload directories.

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 mojolema Hospital Management System installation
    Search the web server for files or directories containing 'mojolema' or 'hospital' in the path, or check known installation directories for the application
    Affected if The application is installed and no patched version is confirmed
  2. Determine the installed version
    Check version files, README files, or admin panels within the mojolema application for version information
    Affected if The version cannot be verified or falls within affected version ranges (if known)
  3. Locate file upload functionality
    Search the application for file upload forms, endpoints, or API paths (common paths include /upload, /file-upload, /documents/upload, or similar)
    Affected if File upload features are present in the application
  4. Inspect upload endpoint configuration
    Examine the upload handler script or controller code for file type validation logic - look for allowlist vs blocklist approaches and whether extensions are properly validated
    Affected if The upload code lacks strict allowlist-based file type validation or can be bypassed
  5. Check upload directory placement
    Verify where uploaded files are stored relative to the webroot - examine the upload path configuration in the application code
    Affected if Uploads are stored within the webroot and retain executable file extensions (.php, .phtml, .php5, .exe, .sh, etc.)

If mojolema Hospital Management System is running with accessible file upload functionality that lacks strict allowlist validation or stores uploads within the webroot with executable extensions, the environment is affected by this vulnerability.
