CVE-2026-33288 Details
Description
SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3, a SQL Injection vulnerability exists in the SuiteCRM authentication mechanisms when directory support is enabled. The application fails to properly sanitize the user-supplied username before using it in a local database query. An attacker with valid, low-privilege directory credentials can exploit this to execute arbitrary SQL commands, leading to complete privilege escalation (e.g., logging in as the CRM Administrator). Versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3 patch the issue.
A SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in SuiteCRM authentication mechanisms, specifically in versions prior to 7.15.1 and 8.9.3, when directory support is enabled. The vulnerability arises because the application does not properly sanitize user-supplied usernames before incorporating them into local database queries. This flaw allows an attacker with valid, low-privilege directory credentials to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to complete privilege escalation, such as gaining access as the CRM Administrator.
