Description
Chatwoot is a customer engagement suite. From 2.2.0 to before 4.11.2, a SQL injection vulnerability exists in the conversation and contact filter APIs. When filtering by a custom attribute of type date or number using the is_greater_than or is_less_than operators, user-supplied values in the values field of the filter payload are interpolated directly into the SQL query without parameterization. Any authenticated user with access to an account can exploit this to execute arbitrary SQL via time-based blind injection. This affects /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/conversations/filter, /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/contacts/filter, and /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/custom_attribute_definitions. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.11.2.

Impact

Chatwoot, a customer engagement platform, contains a SQL injection flaw in its conversation and contact filter APIs. The issue occurs when filtering by a custom attribute of type date or number using the is_greater_than or is_less_than operators; unsanitized values supplied by the user are concatenated directly into the SQL query. An attacker can exploit this by inserting time‑based blind injection payloads to execute arbitrary SQL statements, potentially compromising data integrity and confidentiality within the database.

Affected Systems

The affected products are all installations of Chatwoot from version 2.2.0 up to, but not including, version 4.11.2. The flaw is present in the endpoints /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/conversations/filter, /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/contacts/filter, and /api/v1/accounts/{account_id}/custom_attribute_definitions, and any authenticated user with account access can exploit it.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.5 indicates high severity. While the EPSS score is not available, the lack of a KEV listing suggests no confirmed public exploitation yet; however, the vulnerability is sufficient for on‑premise or self‑hosted deployments where an attacker can acquire account credentials. The required preconditions are: authenticated access to a Chatwoot account and use of the vulnerable filter APIs. The attack vector is network‑based, relying on an attacker’s ability to send crafted API requests to the target instance.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to Chatwoot version 4.11.2 or later where the SQL injection is fixed.
  • Limit account access to trusted users and enforce the principle of least privilege to reduce the number of accounts that can reach the vulnerable endpoints.
  • Implement temporary input validation or request filtering in your network perimeter to detect and block suspicious SQL injection payloads until the patch is applied.
