Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-27299 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq (Packagist): affected from 3.2.5; fixed in 3.2.6\n- phpmyfaq/phpmyfaq (Packagist): affected from 3.2.5; fixed in 3.2.6\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-27299/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-27299/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-27299","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-27299/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-27299","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qgxx-4xv5-6hcw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","account_takeover","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"phpMyFAQ","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can exploit SQL injection in the news author email field to exfiltrate data, take over accounts, or execute code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"sql_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"phpmyfaq","vendor":"phpmyfaq"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-89","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command"}],"description":"phpMyFAQ is an open source FAQ web application for PHP 8.1+ and MySQL, PostgreSQL and other databases. A SQL injection vulnerability has been discovered in the the \"Add News\" functionality due to improper escaping of the email address. This allows any authenticated user with the rights to add/edit FAQ news to exploit this vulnerability to exfiltrate data, take over accounts and in some cases, even achieve RCE. The vulnerable field lies in the  `authorEmail` field which uses PHP's `FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL` filter. This filter is insufficient in protecting against SQL injection attacks and should still be properly escaped. However, in this version of phpMyFAQ (3.2.5), this field is not escaped properly can be used together with other fields to fully exploit the SQL injection vulnerability.
