CVE-2026-15498
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 · uneditedA vulnerability was identified in sergomanov SmartHomeAdatum up to cf495353d81b680675eb8d9aa14a318aa45ce12c. This impacts an unknown function of the file users.php of the component Login. Such manipulation of the argument Login leads to sql injection. The attack may be launched remotely. This product operates on a rolling release basis, ensuring continuous delivery. Consequently, there are no version details for either affected or updated releases. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
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 confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in sergomanov SmartHomeAdatum's Login component within users.php. The Login parameter is not properly sanitized, allowing remote attackers to inject malicious SQL queries through the argument.

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.
-
Locate the SmartHomeAdatum installationSearch the system for the file users.php within a directory named SmartHomeAdatum or sergomanov. Common paths include /var/www/, /home/*/public_html/, or C:\inetpub\wwwroot\. Use: find / -name "users.php" 2>/dev/null | xargs grep -l "SmartHomeAdatum" 2>/dev/nullAffected if The file users.php exists in a SmartHomeAdatum installation directory
-
Identify the Login handling codeOpen users.php and locate the section that handles the Login parameter, typically near a $_POST or $_GET request for a username or login field.Affected if users.php contains code that retrieves a Login parameter from user input
-
Check if Login parameter is sanitizedExamine the code handling the Login parameter. Look for functions like htmlspecialchars, mysqli_real_escape_string, or other input sanitization applied to the Login input before database use.Affected if The Login parameter is used in database queries WITHOUT sanitization functions or with only minimal filtering
-
Verify if prepared statements are usedSearch the users.php file for prepare(), bind_param(), or mysqli_prepare() calls when executing queries that include the Login parameter.Affected if Database queries involving the Login parameter do NOT use prepared statements (mysqli_prepare or PDO::prepare)
-
Confirm the Login functionality is exposedDetermine if the users.php file is accessible via web. Check if it handles login requests directly and is not protected by authentication or access controls.Affected if users.php is accessible as a web endpoint and processes login requests without prior authentication
The environment is affected if the SmartHomeAdatum users.php file exists, processes a Login parameter in database queries without using prepared statements or input sanitization, and is accessible for user interaction.

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 dataImplement parameterized queries (prepared statements) for all database operations in the Login functionality and users.php. If immediate patching is not possible, implement input validation as a temporary compensating control.
