The vulnerable flow reaches an ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE clause where unescaped user input is interpolated directly. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.0.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
ChurchCRM, an open-source church management system, contained an SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in versions before 7.1.0. The flaw is located in the /EventNames.php file where the newEvtTypeCntLst parameter is used during event type creation. Authenticated users with AddEvent privileges can inject malicious SQL because the input is not properly sanitized before being used in an ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE clause. This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.8, indicating high severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and requiring privileges but no user interaction. The vulnerability was fixed in ChurchCRM version 7.1.0.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an authenticated user with AddEvent privileges to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the backend database. This can lead to unauthorized data disclosure, data modification, or deletion, and potentially full system compromise affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the application data.
Mitigation Recommendations
Upgrade ChurchCRM to version 7.1.0 or later where this SQL injection vulnerability is fixed. Since no official patch link or vendor advisory is provided, users should verify the upgrade from the official ChurchCRM project sources. Until upgraded, restrict AddEvent privileges to trusted users only to reduce risk.
