CRITICAL 9.1

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Fields is a GLPI plugin that allows users to add custom fields on GLPI items forms. Prior to version 1.23.3, it is possible to execute arbitrary PHP code from users that are allowed to create dropdowns. This issue has been patched in version 1.23.3.

AnalysisAI

A critical remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Fields plugin for GLPI that allows authenticated users with dropdown creation privileges to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server. The vulnerability affects Fields plugin versions prior to 1.23.3 and has a CVSS score of 9.1, indicating severe impact with the ability to compromise the entire system. While no active exploitation has been reported in KEV and no public proof-of-concept is mentioned, the straightforward attack vector and high privileges requirement suggest targeted insider threat or compromised account scenarios.

Technical ContextAI

The Fields plugin extends GLPI (an IT asset management system) by allowing custom field additions to forms, but contains an input validation weakness (CWE-20) that fails to properly sanitize user-supplied data when creating dropdowns. This improper input validation allows injection of malicious PHP code that gets executed server-side, providing attackers with complete system control. The vulnerability specifically affects the dropdown creation functionality where privileged users can inject code that bypasses security controls.

RemediationAI

Immediately upgrade the Fields plugin to version 1.23.3 or later, which contains the security fix for this vulnerability. The patched version is available at https://github.com/pluginsGLPI/fields/releases/tag/1.23.3. Until patching is possible, restrict dropdown creation privileges to only the most trusted administrators and implement additional monitoring on plugin administrative actions.
