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 security vulnerability has been detected in code-projects Easy Blog Site 1.0. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the file login.php. The manipulation of the argument username/password leads to sql injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used.

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 code-projects Easy Blog Site 1.0 login.php file. The username and password parameters are not properly sanitized, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL queries. This is a pre-authentication vulnerability exploitable remotely.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries (prepared statements) in login.php. Apply input validation and employ least-privilege database accounts. Consider a WAF as a temporary compensating control.

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 Easy Blog Site 1.0 is installed
    Search the webroot for files containing 'Easy Blog Site' branding or check application documentation to identify the installed product and version.
    Affected if The software is code-projects Easy Blog Site version 1.0
  2. Locate the login.php file
    Search the web server document root for login.php, typically found in the application root or /admin directory.
    Affected if The login.php file exists in the application
  3. Inspect the SQL query implementation in login.php
    Open login.php in a text editor or use 'grep' to search for SQL query strings. Look for dynamic SQL construction using variables like $username or $password concatenated directly into the query.
    Affected if The code contains unsanitized SQL queries with user input (username/password) passed directly without parameterized queries or input sanitization
  4. Check for prepared statements or input sanitization
    Search the login.php file for functions like 'mysqli_prepare', 'PDO::prepare', 'mysql_real_escape_string', or any input validation routines applied to the username and password variables.
    Affected if No prepared statements or escape functions are used for the login SQL queries
  5. Verify network exposure of the login page
    Access the login.php URL from a browser or use curl to confirm the page is reachable externally (e.g., http://target/login.php).
    Affected if The login page is accessible over the network without authentication

A user is affected if they have code-projects Easy Blog Site version 1.0 running and the login.php file contains unsanitized SQL queries using username/password parameters.
