AI Analysis

Impact

FreePBX versions prior to 16.0.50 and 17.0.11 allow an authenticated user who has access to the CDR section of the Administration Control Panel to perform SQL injection via the order and sort POST parameters on the CDR Reports module. This vulnerability is a classic SQL injection (CWE‑89) that can be exploited to read, modify, or delete records in the underlying database, potentially exposing sensitive call details or compromising the integrity of the PBX data.

Affected Systems

All FreePBX installations running 16.x versions earlier than 16.0.50 or 17.x versions earlier than 17.0.11 are affected. The flaw exists in the CDR Reports module that is accessible to users with CDR section privileges; full administrator rights are not required.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.5 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is not available, making the current likelihood of exploitation unclear, but the vulnerability is listed as not part of the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers need only authenticate to a FreePBX account with CDR access; no additional privileges are required. Once authenticated, an attacker can craft malicious ORDER BY strings to manipulate SQL queries and potentially exfiltrate confidential data.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply FreePBX update to at least 16.0.50 or 17.0.11 to eliminate the vulnerable code.
  • If an immediate update is not possible, disable or restrict the sort and order parameters on the CDR Reports page for all non‑trusted users.
  • Ensure that only trusted administrators have access to the CDR section of the Control Panel and monitor database access logs for anomalous query patterns.
