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
A vulnerability was identified in mjperpinosa stumasy up to 327d1b0f2915ba79d7ef8ebb74553e987609d9be. Impacted is the function eval of the file application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php. The manipulation of the argument mathematical_sentence leads to code injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. This product adopts a rolling release strategy to maintain continuous delivery. Therefore, version details for affected or updated releases cannot be specified. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

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 confidence

The vulnerability is a code injection flaw in the PHP application 'mjperpinosa stumasy' where user-supplied input to the 'mathematical_sentence' parameter in application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php is passed directly to PHP's eval() function without sanitization, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code.

MitigationReplace the unsafe eval() call with a secure mathematical expression parser library (such as Brick/Math or Laminas-Math) that does not execute arbitrary code, and implement strict input validation on the mathematical_sentence parameter.

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. Locate the vulnerable PHP file
    Search for the file calculate.php in the path application/pages/imba_calculator/ within your web root directory
    Affected if The file application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php exists in your environment
  2. Verify eval() usage with mathematical_sentence parameter
    Open the calculate.php file and search for the 'mathematical_sentence' parameter being passed to the eval() function. Look for code patterns like eval($_POST['mathematical_sentence']) or eval($_GET['mathematical_sentence'])
    Affected if The code shows mathematical_sentence parameter being directly passed to eval() without any sanitization function (such as preg_replace, intval, or a math parser)
  3. Confirm parameter input source
    Check if the mathematical_sentence parameter is received via $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST and then immediately fed to eval()
    Affected if The parameter is received from user input (GET/POST) and reaches eval() without validation
  4. Check if the imba_calculator module is accessible
    Attempt to access the calculate.php endpoint via HTTP (e.g., curl or browser request to application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php) or verify the route configuration exposes this endpoint
    Affected if The calculate.php endpoint is accessible via HTTP/HTTPS requests and accepts the mathematical_sentence parameter
  5. Identify if application is running
    Check if the mjperpinosa stumasy PHP application is deployed and running on your web server
    Affected if The mjperpinosa stumasy application is installed and the imba_calculator functionality is enabled

You are affected if the mjperpinosa stumasy application is running, the file application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php exists, and the mathematical_sentence parameter is passed directly to PHP's eval() function without sanitization.

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.

Mitigation

Replace the unsafe eval() call with a secure mathematical expression parser library (such as Brick/Math or Laminas-Math) that does not execute arbitrary code, and implement strict input validation on the mathematical_sentence parameter.
