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 the application versionLocate and examine the source files or deployment documentation to confirm the exact version of Projectworlds Travel Management System installed. Check for version files, README files, or admin panels that display version information.Affected if The installed version is exactly 1.0 of Projectworlds Travel Management System.
-
Verify addcategory.php existsCheck the web server document root for the presence of /addcategory.php file. This file is typically found in the admin or backend directory of the application.Affected if The file addcategory.php exists in the deployed application.
-
Inspect the t1 parameter handlingExamine the source code of addcategory.php to locate where the t1 parameter is received and processed. Look for $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST references to 't1'.Affected if The t1 parameter is accepted and used in the application code.
-
Check for dynamic SQL executionReview addcategory.php for SQL query construction involving the t1 parameter. Look for query strings built through concatenation or string interpolation rather than prepared statements or parameterized queries.Affected if The t1 parameter is directly interpolated into SQL queries without using prepared statements or parameter binding.
A user is affected if they are running Projectworlds Travel Management System version 1.0 with the addcategory.php file accessible and the t1 parameter being used in unsanitized dynamic SQL queries.

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 dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements and implement proper input validation on all user-supplied parameters.
