This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /storagework/rentChangeCheckInfoPage.htm. The manipulation of the argument clientname leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.
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 Brilliance Golden Link Secondary System (versions up to 20250424) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands via the clientname parameter in /storagework/rentChangeCheckInfoPage.htm. The lack of input sanitization or parameterized queries enables full database compromise.

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 Brilliance Golden Link Secondary System is installedLocate the application installation directory or list installed software on the system. Look for directories or services related to 'Golden Link' or 'Brilliance'. Check running processes for indicators of this application.Affected if The software is present on the system
-
Identify the installed versionLocate version information within the application installation. Common locations include: version files, about pages, or configuration files in the installation directory. The vulnerable versions are dated up to and including 20250424 (April 24, 2025).Affected if The version date is 20250424 or earlier
-
Verify the affected endpoint existsCheck if the web application exposes the path /storagework/rentChangeCheckInfoPage.htm. This may require reviewing web server configuration, accessible URL paths, or attempting to access the endpoint if it is publicly or internally reachable.Affected if The endpoint /storagework/rentChangeCheckInfoPage.htm is accessible and responds to requests
-
Confirm the clientname parameter is acceptedReview application logs or intercept requests to the affected endpoint to verify that the 'clientname' parameter is processed by the application.Affected if The clientname parameter is accepted and processed by the endpoint
A system is affected if it runs Brilliance Golden Link Secondary System with version date 20250424 or earlier AND the /storagework/rentChangeCheckInfoPage.htm endpoint is accessible with the clientname parameter active.

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 dataApply vendor patch for version 20250424 or later; until then, deploy a WAF rule to block SQL injection payloads in the clientname parameter and consider restricting network access to the affected endpoint.
