Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least low-privilege access to an ERPNext instance (PR:L), after which crafted requests are sent to specific endpoints that lack input validation. The vulnerability is version-bounded: only ERPNext before 15.119.1 and 16.x before 16.32.0 are affected, so patched instances are not exploitable. The main limiting factor is the authentication requirement - an attacker must already possess valid (even if minimally privileged) credentials - which narrows realistic exploitation to insiders, compromised accounts, or multi-tenant/self-service-registration deployments; no special non-default server configuration is stated as required.

Impact

The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N) scores 7.1 and is internally consistent with the description: a network-reachable, low-complexity SQL injection that requires authentication (PR:L) and yields high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability impact - matching the 'extract sensitive information' wording. Exploitation status is 'no public exploit identified at time of analysis' - there is no CISA KEV listing and no POC referenced in the provided intelligence, so this is not confirmed active exploitation. EPSS is absent from the input, so real-world exploitation probability cannot be quantified from the data given. The authentication requirement (PR:L) meaningfully lowers the risk versus an unauthenticated SQLi: an attacker needs a valid low-privilege ERPNext account, which constrains this toward insider, compromised-credential, or multi-tenant abuse scenarios rather than opportunistic internet-wide scanning. Net assessment: a genuine confidentiality risk worth prioritizing for internet-exposed or multi-tenant ERPNext instances, but the auth prerequisite and lack of KEV/POC evidence make it a patch-on-schedule issue rather than an emergency, absent EPSS data to indicate broader interest.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who holds or obtains a low-privilege ERPNext account (e.g., a limited internal user or compromised credential) sends a specially crafted request to one of the endpoints that lacks input validation, embedding SQL syntax in a parameter. Because the input is not sanitized, the injected SQL executes against the ERPNext database, allowing the attacker to read sensitive records beyond their authorization. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, and the low attack complexity (AC:L) means exploitation is reliable once the vulnerable endpoint and parameter are known.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 12, 2026

SQL injection in Frappe ERPNext before 15.119.1 and 16.x before 16.32.0 allows authenticated attackers with low privileges to extract sensitive information from the database via crafted requests to endpoints lacking input validation. The vulnerability is not known to be actively exploited, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. With a CVSS 4.0 score of 7.1, exploitation requires network access and valid low-privilege credentials, making it a significant risk for insiders or compromised accounts in multi-tenant deployments.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to ERPNext version 15.119.1 or 16.32.0 (or later) as these versions contain the vendor's fix. If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict access to the affected endpoints to only trusted, highly privileged users, although this may not fully mitigate since the vulnerability only requires low privileges. Monitor database and application logs for anomalous SQL queries, and enforce the principle of least privilege for all user accounts to reduce the impact of a compromised low-privilege account. Ensure strong, unique passwords for all users to prevent credential compromise. Consult the vendor advisory for specific endpoint details and any additional mitigations.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Frappe ERPNext is an open-source enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform built on the Frappe framework, which uses Python and typically MariaDB or MySQL. The vulnerability is a classic SQL injection (CWE-89) in certain endpoints that fail to properly validate user input before incorporating it into SQL queries. According to the CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N), the attack is network-reachable, requires low privileges (authenticated user), and yields high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability impact. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:frappe:erpnext:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*, indicating all versions up to the fixed releases. The independent assessment confirms that exploitation requires an authenticated session with at least low-privilege access, and the main limiting factor is the authentication requirement, narrowing realistic exploitation to insiders, compromised accounts, or multi-tenant/self-service-registration deployments. No special non-default server configuration is required.

DescriptionCVE.org

Frappe ERPNext before 15.119.1 and 16.x before 16.32.0 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in some endpoints that lack input validation. Authenticated attackers with low privileges can send specially crafted requests to these endpoints to inject SQL and extract sensitive information from the ERPNext database.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Frappe ERPNext, the platform many organizations rely on for finance, HR, inventory, and customer records, is affected by an unpatched SQL injection flaw in releases before 15.119.1 and 16.x before 16.32.0 that lets an attacker with ordinary user-level access pull sensitive data out of the underlying database. Because the prerequisite is a legitimate low-privilege account rather than administrative access, the realistic threat is an insider, a compromised or shared account, or cross-tenant exposure in multi-tenant and managed-hosting deployments where one customer's session can reach another's records. Exposure is confidentiality-driven rather than disruptive, and with no public exploit identified at time of analysis there is a brief window to tighten access controls before attack techniques become widely available.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations include restricting ERPNext database accounts to least privilege and role-scoped record access, enforcing multi-factor authentication and eliminating shared or dormant low-privilege accounts, deploying WAF or reverse-proxy filtering for SQL-like input on ERPNext endpoints, suppressing verbose database error output, rotating application database credentials, segmenting tenants and network paths to the database, and enabling database activity monitoring with alerting on anomalous bulk-read or cross-tenant query patterns.
