CVE-2026-57787
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 · uneditedImproper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in CreativeWS CWS SVGicons cws-svgicons allows Blind SQL Injection.This issue affects CWS SVGicons: from n/a through <= 1.5.5.
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 confidenceCreativeWS CWS SVGicons plugin contains a blind SQL injection vulnerability where user-supplied input is not properly sanitized before being incorporated into SQL queries. Attackers can craft malicious input to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially exfiltrating data from the database through boolean-based inference.

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 and identify the CWS SVGicons pluginSearch the web server file system for the CWS SVGicons plugin directory and examine the main plugin file for version information typically found in the plugin header commentAffected if Plugin version is 1.5.5 or lower (including any 1.x version)
-
Verify the plugin is active and loadedCheck the CMS or application plugin management system to confirm the plugin is enabled, or inspect web server logs for requests hitting the plugin endpointsAffected if Plugin is installed and actively loaded by the application
-
Identify user input entry pointsExamine the plugin PHP source code for database query execution (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE statements) and trace back to find if $_GET, $_POST, or $_REQUEST parameters flow into those queries without sanitizationAffected if User-supplied parameters reach database query functions without prepared statements or input validation
-
Test for SQL injection response differencesSubmit two requests to the suspected parameter: one with a condition known to be true (e.g., AND 1=1) and one with a condition known to be false (e.g., AND 1=2); compare application responses for timing or content differencesAffected if Application behavior differs between true and false conditions, indicating blind SQL injection is possible
User is affected if CWS SVGicons plugin version 1.5.5 or lower is installed and active, and the plugin processes user input into database queries without sanitization or prepared statements.

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 dataReplace dynamic SQL query construction with parameterized queries (prepared statements) and implement proper input validation on all user-supplied parameters before database interaction.
