| Impact | Despite the absence of a CVSS score in the provided data, the SQL injection classification (CWE-89) combined with blog post input vectors indicates high real-world risk. SQL injection typically enables unauthorized database access, credential theft, privilege escalation, and potential remote code execution depending on database permissions and backend configuration. The lack of CVSS or EPSS data prevents quantification of exploitation probability, but SQL injection in public-facing content management systems is generally considered immediately exploitable with minimal attack complexity. No KEV (CISA Known Exploited Vulnerability) designation or public exploit code has been identified, suggesting the vulnerability may be relatively recent or not yet widely discovered; however, the straightforward nature of SQL injection and public disclosure through GitHub security advisories increases the likelihood of rapid exploit development. Organizations running baserCMS before version 5.2.3 should prioritize patching given the direct unauthenticated attack vector. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An unauthenticated attacker submits a crafted blog post containing SQL metacharacters (e.g., single quotes, UNION clauses) through the blog creation or comment interface. If input validation is absent or bypassable, the injected SQL executes within the database context, allowing the attacker to extract user credentials, modify published content, or escalate privileges. No public exploit code has been identified, but the straightforward nature of SQL injection in content management systems means proof-of-concept development is likely rapid post-disclosure. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 31, 2026
SQL injection in baserCMS prior to version 5.2.3 allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries through unvalidated input in blog post functionality. The vulnerability affects all versions before 5.2.3 and has been patched; no public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at the time of analysis.
RemediationAI
Upgrade baserCMS to version 5.2.3 or later immediately; the patched release is available at https://github.com/baserproject/basercms/releases/tag/5.2.3. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, restrict network access to the blog post creation and editing endpoints using web application firewall (WAF) rules or authentication-layer controls until patching can be performed. Input validation bypass is characteristic of SQL injection, so network-level mitigations should be combined with a rapid patching timeline. Review database user permissions to ensure the baserCMS application account operates with minimal necessary privileges, limiting the impact scope if injection occurs before patching.

Technical ContextAI · show details
baserCMS is a PHP-based website development framework that manages blog content through database-backed post storage. The SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) stems from insufficient input sanitization or parameterization in blog post processing logic, allowing attackers to inject malicious SQL commands that execute within the database context. The framework's blog module fails to properly escape or bind user-supplied parameters before constructing SQL queries, a common pattern in legacy or rapidly-developed content management systems. The vulnerability affects the entire codebase prior to remediation in version 5.2.3 as indicated by the CPE string covering all versions of baserproject:basercms.
