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 artplacer ArtPlacer Widget artplacer-widget allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects ArtPlacer Widget: from n/a through <= 2.22.9.2.

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

Blind SQL Injection vulnerability in ArtPlacer Widget allows attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through unsanitized user input. The 'Blind' classification means the attacker infers database content through behavioral differences (e.g., time delays or true/false conditions) rather than seeing direct output.

MitigationUpdate ArtPlacer Widget to a patched version; if unavailable, implement parameterized queries/prepared statements for all database interactions and add input validation to neutralize SQL special characters.

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 ArtPlacer Widget deployment
    Search your codebase, dependencies, or installed packages for 'artplacer' or 'ArtPlacer Widget' to determine if this software is present in your environment.
    Affected if ArtPlacer Widget is found in the environment
  2. Identify installed version
    Check package.json, composer.json, or the widget JavaScript file for the ArtPlacer Widget version number, then compare it against any version information provided by the vendor.
    Affected if The version cannot be determined as patched or the installed version predates the fix
  3. Review database query code
    Examine the ArtPlacer Widget source code for database interaction functions and trace whether user-supplied input flows directly into SQL queries without using parameterized queries or prepared statements.
    Affected if User input is concatenated or inserted directly into SQL statements without sanitization or parameterization
  4. Check input validation implementation
    Inspect the widget's input handling middleware or functions to determine if user-provided values are validated, sanitized, or escaped before being used in database operations.
    Affected if No input validation, sanitization, or escaping is applied to user input before database queries

You are affected if ArtPlacer Widget is deployed in your environment and user-supplied input is passed to database queries without parameterized queries, prepared statements, or input sanitization.
