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 determined in CodeAstro Apartment Visitor Management System 1.0. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /apartment-visitor/edit-apartment.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument editid can lead to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized.

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

SQL injection vulnerability in CodeAstro Apartment Visitor Management System 1.0 within the edit-apartment.php file. The 'editid' parameter is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries, allowing an attacker to inject malicious SQL code via the URL. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable and has a CVSS score of 6.3 (Medium).

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries (prepared statements) for the editid parameter in edit-apartment.php, implement proper input validation, and apply the principle of least privilege to database accounts.

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 CodeAstro AVMS installation
    Locate the application directory on the web server and identify if this is the CodeAstro Apartment Visitor Management System
    Affected if The application is present on the server
  2. Check the installed version
    Locate any version file, about page, or header/config file that displays the software version number
    Affected if The installed version is 1.0
  3. Verify edit-apartment.php exists
    Search the web root for the file edit-apartment.php using file system search or grep for the filename
    Affected if The file edit-apartment.php exists in the application directory
  4. Inspect vulnerable code pattern
    Open edit-apartment.php and search for SQL query construction that uses the 'editid' parameter without parameterized queries or sanitization functions like mysqli_prepare, PDO::prepare, or htmlspecialchars/filtering
    Affected if The 'editid' parameter is directly interpolated into SQL queries without prepared statements or input validation
  5. Test parameter handling
    Submit a benign SQL injection test payload to the editid parameter in edit-apartment.php (such as editid=1' OR '1'='1) and observe if database errors are returned or unexpected data is disclosed
    Affected if SQL syntax errors appear in response or unintended data is returned
  6. Confirm network accessibility
    Verify the edit-apartment.php endpoint is reachable over the network (HTTP/HTTPS) from an attacker perspective
    Affected if The application is exposed to untrusted networks without authentication barriers

You are affected if the CodeAstro Apartment Visitor Management System version 1.0 is installed and the edit-apartment.php file contains direct SQL query construction using the editid parameter without prepared statements or input validation.
