Technical Analysis
Frappe ERPNext versions prior to 15.106.0 and 16.x prior to 16.16.0 contain an SQL injection vulnerability in some endpoints caused by improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. Authenticated users with low privileges can exploit this by sending specially crafted requests to inject SQL code, potentially extracting sensitive data from the backend database. The vulnerability is identified as CVE-2026-109646 with a CVSS 4.0 base score of 7.1 indicating high severity.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows authenticated low-privileged attackers to perform SQL injection attacks, leading to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information stored in the database. This compromises data confidentiality and could facilitate further attacks depending on the extracted data.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in Frappe ERPNext versions 15.106.0 and 16.16.0 and later. Users should upgrade to these versions to remediate the vulnerability. Since this is not a cloud service, patching must be applied by the user. No vendor advisory content was provided, so verify the vendor's official advisory for detailed patch instructions.
