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 projectworlds Online Art Gallery Shop 1.0. Impacted is an unknown function of the file /admin/adminHome.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument social_linked can lead to sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been published 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 /admin/adminHome.php allows remote attackers to manipulate the social_linked parameter to inject arbitrary SQL commands, potentially allowing unauthorized database access, data exfiltration, or data manipulation.

MitigationReplace dynamic SQL queries with parameterized queries/prepared statements in adminHome.php, implement strict input validation on the social_linked parameter, 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 the affected PHP file
    Search the web root directory for /admin/adminHome.php
    Affected if The file exists in the application's directory structure
  2. Confirm admin endpoint accessibility
    Check if the /admin/ path is reachable via HTTP/HTTPS from the network
    Affected if The admin interface is externally accessible without proper access controls
  3. Verify social_linked parameter usage
    Examine the source code of adminHome.php and locate where the social_linked parameter is processed
    Affected if The parameter is used in SQL queries without prepared statements or parameterization
  4. Inspect database query implementation
    Review the SQL query code that incorporates the social_linked variable
    Affected if The query uses direct string concatenation or interpolation with the user input parameter
  5. Check application version
    Identify the installed version of the web application software
    Affected if The installed version matches the release containing the vulnerable adminHome.php file

The environment is affected if adminHome.php exists with the social_linked parameter being used in unparameterized SQL queries and the admin endpoint is accessible to potential attackers.
