CVE-2018-12942 — Seeddms Seeddms security vulnerability
SQL injection vulnerability in the "Users management" functionality in SeedDMS (formerly LetoDMS and MyDMS) before 5.1.8 allows authenticated attackers to manipulate an SQL query within the application by sending additional SQL commands to the application server. An attacker can use this vulnerability to perform malicious tasks such as to extract, change, or delete sensitive information within the database supporting the application, and potentially run system commands on the underlying operating system.

Matched remediation archetype
SQL and data-query injection
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Trace request, message, file, and stored values into SQL, ORM query fragments, filters, sort expressions, and other data-query languages.
- Inventory database roles, reachable schemas, multi-tenant boundaries, and whether stacked or administrative operations are enabled.
- Check both direct queries and second-order use of previously stored values.
Remediate safely
- Use parameterized queries or safe query builders for all values; map identifiers and operators through explicit allowlists.
- Remove raw query concatenation and give the application account only the tables and operations it requires.
- Update affected data-access components and add regression tests for query structure preservation with inert edge-case inputs.
