CVE-2026-61518: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in ispconfig ispconfig3

Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: ispconfig
Product: ispconfig3

Description

ISPConfig3 versions 3.2.0 and 3.3.0 contain an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the Remote API. The vulnerability arises because the primary_id parameter in delete and update API methods is directly concatenated into SQL queries without proper integer casting or parameterized binding. This allows a remote API user with any low-privilege function permission to inject arbitrary SQL, potentially deleting or modifying records across all tenants and extracting sensitive data such as password hashes via blind boolean inference.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-61518 is an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in ISPConfig3's Remote API affecting versions 3.2.0 and 3.3.0. The primary_id parameter used in delete and update API methods is concatenated directly into SQL WHERE clauses without integer casting or parameterized queries, enabling injection of arbitrary SQL commands. The built-in SQL injection scanner does not block quote-free boolean payloads and does not reject such requests by default. An attacker with any single low-privilege function permission can exploit this flaw to delete or modify records across all tenants in the control panel database and extract sensitive data including password hashes and client records via blind boolean inference.

Potential Impact

An attacker with authenticated access and minimal privileges can perform SQL injection attacks to delete or modify data across all tenants in the ISPConfig control panel database. The attacker can also extract sensitive information such as password hashes and client records through blind boolean inference. This compromises data integrity and confidentiality across multiple tenants.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, restrict access to the Remote API to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity. Avoid granting unnecessary low-privilege function permissions to users. Follow vendor updates closely for an official fix or mitigation.
