| Impact | This vulnerability presents elevated real-world risk despite a moderate CVSS v3.1 score of 6.3. The CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L) indicates network-accessible exploitation requiring only low privileges (authenticated user) with low attack complexity, suggesting practical exploitability. The EPSS exploitation probability is flagged as present (E:P in vector), indicating active exploitation likelihood. Most critically, a public proof-of-concept exploit is available and publicly disclosed via references (yuque.com link), dramatically increasing real-world risk. The vendor's failure to respond to early disclosure (RL:X - unknown remediation level) and unconfirmed patch status further elevate priority. The SSVC decision framework supports immediate action: exploitability is confirmed (public POC), attack is automatable (SQL injection), and technical impact is significant (confidentiality, integrity, and availability all affected). This is NOT a low-risk high-CVSS issue; the combination of public POC, vendor non-responsiveness, and authenticated but low-barrier access makes this a genuine operational priority. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An authenticated user (which could be a low-privilege content editor or compromised account) submits a crafted HTTP request to the SitesAddController.Submit endpoint with a malicious SQL payload embedded in the tableHandWrite parameter, such as tableHandWrite=myTable'; DROP TABLE users; --. Since the DDL Handler concatenates this unsanitized input directly into a SQL CREATE/ALTER statement without parameterization, the injected DROP TABLE command executes with the database service's privilege level, destroying the users table or exfiltrating sensitive data. A public proof-of-concept (available via the yuque.com reference) demonstrates this attack, making it reproducible by any attacker with SSCMS access or ability to obtain valid credentials. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 16, 2026
SQL injection in SSCMS 7.4.0 via the tableHandWrite parameter in SitesAddController.Submit.cs allows authenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands. Public exploit code exists for this vulnerability, and no patch is currently available from the vendor despite early disclosure notification.
Earlier versions of this analysis (1)
A SQL injection vulnerability exists in SSCMS 7.4.0 within the SitesAddController.Submit.cs file's DDL Handler component, where the tableHandWrite argument is not properly sanitized before being used in database queries. This allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands remotely, potentially leading to unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion. A public proof-of-concept exploit has been released and the vendor has not responded to early disclosure notifications, creating significant real-world exploitation risk.
RemediationAI
Immediate action: Contact the SSCMS vendor directly to obtain a patched version, as vendor responsiveness status is currently unknown despite early disclosure attempts. If a patch is available, upgrade SSCMS to the latest patched release immediately, as SQL injection in a CMS's core database layer poses critical risk. Interim mitigations (if patching is delayed): implement web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection patterns in the tableHandWrite parameter (e.g., block requests containing SQL keywords like UNION, SELECT, OR, DROP), restrict access to the SitesAddController.Submit endpoint to trusted administrative IP ranges via network-layer access controls, and enable comprehensive SQL query logging and alerting to detect exploitation attempts. Conduct a security audit of other user-input handling in the DDL Handler and SitesAddController components to identify similar injection vulnerabilities.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability is rooted in CWE-89 (SQL Injection), a classic input validation flaw where user-controlled data is concatenated directly into SQL query strings without parameterized query protection or input escaping. SSCMS (a content management system identified via CPE cpe:2.3:a:n/a:sscms) version 7.4.0 fails to properly handle the tableHandWrite parameter in the DDL (Data Definition Language) Handler component within SitesAddController.Submit.cs. This component appears responsible for dynamic schema manipulation, making it a high-risk attack surface. The vulnerability affects the CMS's core data layer, where attackers can inject malicious SQL syntax through a web-accessible controller action.

Lifecycle Timeline
5DescriptionCVE.org
A security flaw has been discovered in SSCMS 7.4.0. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file SitesAddController.Submit.cs of the component DDL Handler. The manipulation of the argument tableHandWrite results in sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using A security flaw should be aware of moderate risk from CVE-2026-4234, a SQL injection vulnerability rated CVSS 6.3. Exploitation could allow attackers to execute code or inject malicious input. Proof-of-concept code is publicly available. Organizations should apply vendor updates when available and monitor for exploitation.
Apply vendor patch. If patching is delayed: deploy WAF rules, restrict network access, enable logging.
