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
Prog Management System developed by PROG MIS has a SQL Injection vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands to read database contents.

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

The Prog Management System by PROG MIS contains an SQL Injection vulnerability in one or more input fields that are not properly sanitized before being used in database queries. An unauthenticated remote attacker can craft malicious SQL payloads to bypass authentication and extract sensitive data from the underlying database, potentially exposing user credentials, application data, and other confidential information.

MitigationImplement parameterized queries (prepared statements) or stored procedures for all database interactions, apply input validation and output encoding, and restrict database permissions to the minimum required for the application to function.

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. Identify if Prog Management System is installed
    Search for application files, check for 'Prog Management System' or 'PROG MIS' strings in web directories, or look for characteristic login pages, configuration files, or database connection files that reference this product
    Affected if The application files or instances of Prog Management System by PROG MIS are found in the environment
  2. Determine the installed version
    Check version files, about pages, or configuration files within the application directory for version strings; compare against any available version documentation from the vendor
    Affected if The installed version falls within a vulnerable range or cannot be determined (assume affected)
  3. Identify input fields that handle authentication or data queries
    Review application source code, web forms, or API endpoints for input fields that interact with database queries, particularly login forms, search fields, or parameters that accept user input and pass it to database operations
    Affected if Input fields exist that accept user-supplied data and are used in database queries without visible sanitization
  4. Check for proper SQL query handling
    Examine the application's database interaction code (source code or decompiled files) for use of prepared statements, parameterized queries, or stored procedures versus string concatenation in SQL queries
    Affected if SQL queries are constructed using string concatenation or unsanitized string interpolation rather than parameterized queries
  5. Test affected input fields for SQL injection
    Using a safe testing methodology, submit SQL injection test payloads (such as single quotes, UNION-based payloads, or time-based payloads) to identified input fields and observe for SQL errors, unexpected behavior, or time delays that indicate successful injection
    Affected if Submitting SQL injection payloads produces database errors, bypasses authentication, or reveals unexpected data
  6. Review database user permissions
    Inspect database user accounts used by the application to determine if they have excessive privileges beyond what the application requires (such as administrative privileges or access to other databases)
    Affected if The application database user has elevated privileges that could allow an attacker to escalate impact beyond the application database

The environment is affected if Prog Management System by PROG MIS is installed and input fields used in database queries do not use parameterized queries, allowing unauthenticated SQL injection attacks.
