CVE-2025-52831
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 · uneditedImproper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in thanhtungtnt Video List Manager video-list-manager allows SQL Injection.This issue affects Video List Manager: from n/a through <= 1.7.
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 confidenceA SQL injection vulnerability exists in thanhtungtnt Video List Manager versions up to 1.7. The application fails to properly sanitize user input before using it in SQL queries, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL commands. With a CVSS score of 9.3, this is a critical flaw likely exploitable remotely without authentication.

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.
-
Identify Video List Manager installationSearch for files or components named 'Video List Manager', 'video_list_manager', or directories containing 'thanhtungtnt' in your web application's file structure. Check your application's component library or dependency manifest for this module.Affected if The Video List Manager component by thanhtungtnt is found in the environment
-
Determine installed versionLocate version information in the component's source files (typically in version.php, composer.json, package.json, or a README file within the Video List Manager directory). Compare the version number to the affected range (1.7 and below).Affected if The installed version is 1.7 or any version lower than 1.7
-
Check for web exposureExamine your web server configuration and routing to determine if the Video List Manager component is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS endpoints. Look for routes or URLs that serve content from this component.Affected if The component is exposed through web-facing URLs or API endpoints
-
Identify user input pointsReview the Video List Manager source code for SQL queries that accept user-supplied input through GET/POST parameters, form fields, or URL arguments. Look for query construction that directly incorporates these inputs without visible sanitization.Affected if The component processes user input and uses it in database queries without apparent parameterization
-
Verify database account privilegesReview the database credentials used by the Video List Manager component. Check if the database user follows least privilege principles or has excessive permissions (such as DROP, DELETE, or administrative privileges).Affected if The database account used by the component has elevated privileges beyond what the component requires
Your environment is affected if the thanhtungtnt Video List Manager version 1.7 or lower is installed and exposed to user input through web-facing endpoints that construct SQL queries without parameterization.
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 all dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries or prepared statements, implement strict input validation on all user-supplied data, and apply principle of least privilege to the database account.
