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 flaw has been found in eosphoros-ai db-gpt up to 0.7.5. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file /api/v1/editor/ of the component Incomplete Fix. This manipulation causes sql injection. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. 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 · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in eosphoros-ai db-gpt versions up to 0.7.5 affecting the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint. The vulnerability is described as stemming from an 'Incomplete Fix,' suggesting a prior remediation attempt that did not fully address the SQL injection flaw. Attack can be exploited remotely.

MitigationReplace any incomplete prior fix with proper parameterized queries or prepared statements for all database operations in the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint; implement comprehensive input validation to prevent SQL injection.

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 the db-gpt installation
    Locate the db-gpt application directory or check the installed package version using package managers or the application's startup logs
    Affected if The application is eosphoros-ai db-gpt and the exact version cannot be determined or is 0.7.5 or lower
  2. Check the installed version against affected range
    Run the command to retrieve the db-gpt version (such as 'pip show db-gpt' or check version files in the installation directory) and compare it to the affected range of versions up to 0.7.5
    Affected if The installed version is 0.7.5 or any version lower than 0.7.5
  3. Determine if the vulnerable endpoint is exposed
    Review the application's routing configuration or server setup to confirm whether the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint is accessible (check route definitions in the API configuration files)
    Affected if The /api/v1/editor/ endpoint is exposed and reachable from the network or user-facing interface
  4. Inspect database operations in the editor endpoint
    Examine the source code handling the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint to identify any database query construction that incorporates user input without proper parameterized queries or prepared statements
    Affected if User-supplied input from the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint is directly concatenated into SQL queries without sanitization or parameterization
  5. Verify presence of prior incomplete fix
    Search the codebase for any existing SQL injection mitigation attempts in the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint handlers and assess whether they fully prevent SQL injection or have gaps
    Affected if A prior incomplete fix exists that does not properly use parameterized queries or comprehensive input validation for all database operations in the endpoint

A user is affected if they are running db-gpt version 0.7.5 or lower with the /api/v1/editor/ endpoint exposed and user input flowing to SQL queries without proper parameterization.
