Lifecycle Timeline
6DescriptionGitHub Advisory
ChurchCRM is an open-source church management system. Prior to 7.1.0, a critical SQL injection vulnerability exists in ChurchCRM's PropertyTypeEditor.php where the Name and Description POST parameters are sanitized only with strip_tags() before direct concatenation into SQL queries. This allows authenticated users with "Manage Properties" permission to execute arbitrary SQL commands including data exfiltration, modification, and deletion. Injected data persists in the database and is reflected across multiple application pages without output encoding. This vulnerability is fixed in 7.1.0.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in ChurchCRM's PropertyTypeEditor.php allows authenticated users with 'Manage Properties' permission to execute arbitrary SQL commands through unsanitized Name and Description POST parameters. ChurchCRM versions prior to 7.1.0 are affected. The vulnerability relies on inadequate input validation (strip_tags() only) before SQL concatenation, enabling data exfiltration, modification, and deletion. CVSS 8.8 reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the attack vector is network-accessible with low complexity once authenticated. EPSS data not provided, but the requirement for authenticated access with specific permissions reduces immediate exploitation surface compared to unauthenticated vulnerabilities.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability stems from classic SQL injection (CWE-89) in ChurchCRM, a PHP-based church management system. The PropertyTypeEditor.php component accepts Name and Description parameters via POST requests and applies only strip_tags() for sanitization-a function designed to remove HTML/PHP tags, not prevent SQL injection. These insufficiently sanitized inputs are directly concatenated into SQL queries rather than using parameterized statements or prepared queries. The injected payloads persist in the database and are reflected across multiple application pages without proper output encoding, creating both immediate SQL execution risks and stored cross-site scripting potential. The CPE identifier (cpe:2.3:a:churchcrm:crm) confirms this affects the ChurchCRM core application. Exploitation requires authentication with 'Manage Properties' permission, indicating the vulnerability targets administrative or privileged user functions rather than public-facing endpoints.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to ChurchCRM version 7.1.0 or later, which addresses this SQL injection vulnerability through proper input validation and parameterized queries. The vendor-released patch eliminates direct SQL concatenation in PropertyTypeEditor.php and implements secure coding practices for database interactions. Organizations should download version 7.1.0 from the official ChurchCRM GitHub repository and follow standard upgrade procedures including database backups before migration. As an interim mitigation for environments unable to immediately upgrade, restrict 'Manage Properties' permission to only essential trusted administrators and monitor database query logs for suspicious patterns including SQL metacharacters in property names or descriptions. Audit existing property records for signs of injection attempts.
