Kanboard is project management software focused on Kanban methodology. Versions prior to 1.2.51 have an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability. Attackers with the permission to add users to a project can leverage this vulnerability to dump the entirety of the kanboard database. Version 1.2.51 fixes the issue.
AnalysisAI
An authenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in Kanboard project management software prior to version 1.2.51. Authenticated attackers with permission to add users to a project can exploit this vulnerability to dump the entire Kanboard database, potentially exposing sensitive project data, user credentials, and application secrets. The vulnerability is confirmed under active tracking by Debian (2 releases) and Ubuntu (medium priority), with a GitHub Security Advisory published.
Technical ContextAI
Kanboard (cpe:2.3:a:kanboard:kanboard:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) is a web-based Kanban project management application written in PHP. This vulnerability is classified as CWE-89 (SQL Injection), indicating insufficient input validation or parameterization in database queries related to the user-to-project assignment functionality. The CVSS 4.0 vector indicates network-based exploitation (AV:N) with low attack complexity (AC:L) and no attack requirements (AT:N), requiring only low privileges (PR:L) such as a standard authenticated user account with project user management permissions. The vulnerability allows attackers to manipulate SQL queries to extract arbitrary data from the database backend.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Kanboard to version 1.2.51 or later, which contains a fix for this SQL injection vulnerability as documented in the GitHub Security Advisory at https://github.com/kanboard/kanboard/security/advisories/GHSA-f62r-m4mr-2xhh. Organizations using Debian or Ubuntu should monitor their respective security channels for patched packages. Until patching is completed, implement compensating controls by restricting which authenticated users have permission to add users to projects, limiting this capability only to highly trusted administrators. Consider implementing database activity monitoring to detect SQL injection attempts targeting user management functions, and review application logs for suspicious queries or abnormal database access patterns.
