Security SummaryAI
CVE-2025-57793 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) affecting Explorance Blue versions prior to 8.14.9. The flaw arises from insufficient validation of user-supplied input within a web application component, allowing crafted input to be executed as part of backend database queries. This issue carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.6 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant confidentiality impact in a scoped attack.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. By submitting specially crafted input to the affected web component, attackers can manipulate backend SQL queries to extract sensitive data from the database, such as user information or other confidential records, leveraging the high confidentiality impact without affecting integrity or availability.
