CVE-2026-53690: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in Redeight Redeight CMS
An SQL Injection vulnerability exists in Redeight CMS version 1.0 via the "userEmail" parameter in the POST "/admin/index.php" login endpoint. The application fails to sanitize user input and directly interpolates it into SQL queries without using prepared statements, which allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands and extract sensitive database information.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-53690 describes an SQL Injection vulnerability in Redeight CMS version 1.0. The issue arises because the userEmail parameter in the POST request to /admin/index.php is directly interpolated into SQL queries without proper input sanitization or use of prepared statements. This allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious SQL commands remotely, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or database compromise. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-89 and has a critical severity rating with a CVSS 4.0 score of 9.3. No vendor-provided patch or official remediation level is indicated in the available data.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the backend database. This can lead to unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information stored in the database, data modification, or other impacts depending on the database privileges. The vulnerability affects the login endpoint, which may facilitate further unauthorized access or privilege escalation.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, it is recommended to implement input validation and sanitization on the userEmail parameter and consider deploying web application firewall (WAF) rules to detect and block SQL injection attempts targeting the /admin/index.php endpoint.
