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 Simple Laundry System 1.0. This affects an unknown part of the file /userchecklogin.php. Such manipulation of the argument userid leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack 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 · high confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in code-projects Simple Laundry System 1.0 allows remote attackers to manipulate SQL queries via the userid parameter in /userchecklogin.php, potentially enabling unauthorized access or data exfiltration.

MitigationReplace direct string concatenation of the userid parameter with parameterized queries (prepared statements) in the PHP code, implement strict input validation, and apply principle of least privilege to database accounts.

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. Locate Simple Laundry System installation
    Search the server filesystem for directories containing 'laundry' or 'simple laundry' and check for the presence of userchecklogin.php
    Affected if The application directory is found and contains userchecklogin.php in the web root or a subdirectory
  2. Verify the vulnerable file exists
    Confirm that /userchecklogin.php (or the equivalent path within the laundry system directory) exists on the web server
    Affected if The file exists at the expected path within the Simple Laundry System installation directory
  3. Examine the userid parameter handling
    Open userchecklogin.php and search for the userid parameter usage in SQL queries - look for direct insertion of $_POST['userid'] or $_GET['userid'] into SQL strings without escaping or prepared statements
    Affected if The code contains SQL queries that use the userid parameter directly without mysqli_real_escape_string, htmlspecialchars, or parameterized queries (bind_param/prepare)
  4. Check database interaction layer
    Review the database connection code in userchecklogin.php to see if it uses mysqli or PDO with prepared statements versus legacy mysql_* functions or string concatenation
    Affected if The code constructs SQL queries through string concatenation with user input rather than using bound parameters

If Simple Laundry System 1.0 is installed and userchecklogin.php contains SQL queries that directly incorporate the userid parameter without sanitization or prepared statements, the environment is affected by this CVE.
