Why this priority: High severity, with no exploitation signal yet.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Analyzed
What it is
Input is pasted into a database query, so an attacker can rewrite the query to read or change data. The software trusts input it should check, so crafted values reach code that assumes they are well formed.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, with an ordinary user account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
A successful attack can read the data it protects, change data or behaviour and take it offline. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or change records in the data store behind the application.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet. EPSS estimates a 0.28% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 21% of scored CVEs.
What to do
- Upgrade SuiteCRM to a fixed version for your release line (7.15.2, 8.10.2). The patch notes are linked below.
- Until it is patched, review who holds accounts that can reach it.
Description from NVD
SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, AOR_Report::build_report_query_where incorporates a report editor's parameter_value when value_type=Field without sufficient validation. An authenticated user who can save a report can use SQL injection to read the entire SuiteCRM database. Disclosed data can include users.user_hash, OAuth2 tokens, CRM records, report definitions, and configuration data; the connector does not permit stacked queries, so direct write-through-injection is not supported. This issue is fixed in versions 7.15.2 and 8.10.2.
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Services that build database or directory queries. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.
- Databases. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.
- Interfaces that accept external input. The flaw sits at the input boundary of the affected component.
Trust boundaries in play
- Authenticated network access. An account is needed, so exposure follows who can sign in: customers, partners or staff.
- Between the application and its data store. An attacker who crosses it can read or change records in the data store behind the application.
- At the input boundary of the affected component. An attacker who crosses it can drive the component into behaviour its authors did not intend.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does SuiteCRM run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
