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 weakness has been identified in mjperpinosa stumasy up to 327d1b0f2915ba79d7ef8ebb74553e987609d9be. The impacted element is the function Notes_controller::search_scratch_data of the file application/PHP/objects/notes/search_scratch_data.php. This manipulation of the argument field_name causes sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. This product is using a rolling release to provide continious delivery. Therefore, no version details for affected nor updated releases are available. 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 · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in the Notes_controller::search_scratch_data function within application/PHP/objects/notes/search_scratch_data.php. The field_name parameter is directly used in SQL query construction without proper sanitization or parameterized queries, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious SQL statements.

MitigationImplement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all SQL queries in the affected function, and perform comprehensive input validation on the field_name parameter. Since this is a rolling-release product without versioned updates, a patch must be obtained from the vendor or the fix must be implemented manually.

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 search_scratch_data.php in the application/PHP/objects/notes/ directory of your application
    Affected if The file exists in the expected path
  2. Verify the Notes_controller function exists
    Open the file and locate the search_scratch_data function within the Notes_controller class
    Affected if The function is present in the code
  3. Inspect SQL query construction for field_name parameter
    Examine the function code for direct concatenation of the field_name parameter into SQL queries without prepared statements or parameter binding
    Affected if The field_name parameter is directly interpolated into SQL strings without sanitization or parameterized queries
  4. Confirm lack of input validation
    Search the function for any validation, sanitization, or escaping functions applied to the field_name parameter before SQL execution
    Affected if No input validation or escaping functions are used on the field_name parameter
  5. Check if the search endpoint is accessible
    Identify if the search_scratch_data function can be triggered via HTTP requests (check routes, controllers, or API endpoints that call this function)
    Affected if The vulnerable function is accessible and accepts user-supplied field_name input

If the search_scratch_data.php file exists with the search_scratch_data function that directly uses the field_name parameter in SQL queries without prepared statements or input validation, your environment is affected.

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 available No clean upgrade yet — mitigate in the meantime
Mitigation

Implement prepared statements/parameterized queries for all SQL queries in the affected function, and perform comprehensive input validation on the field_name parameter. Since this is a rolling-release product without versioned updates, a patch must be obtained from the vendor or the fix must be implemented manually.
