Description
Joomla Extension - fabrikar.com - Unauthenticated SQL injection in list filter condition parameter in Fabrik < 4.7.2 - The condition parameter passed to a list filter is concatenated verbatim into the WHERE clause built by getFilterQuery().

AI Analysis

Impact

A vulnerable parameter is concatenated directly into a SQL WHERE clause without sanitization, allowing an attacker to insert arbitrary SQL. The flaw enables read‑only extraction of any database tables reachable by the web application, potentially exposing user credentials, order information, or other sensitive data. The weakness maps to CWE‑89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command.

Affected Systems

Any Joomla site that has installed the Fabrik extension before version 4.7.3 is affected. The issue arises when the list filter feature is enabled, which is common in content and form modules provided by Fabrik.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 9.3 classifies this as critical severity. While no EPSS data is available, the lack of authentication in the attack path increases its likelihood. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV yet, but the potential to harvest large data volumes in a single request poses a high confidentiality risk. Attackers can trigger the injection via normal HTTP requests to the list filter endpoint with a crafted filter condition, bypassing any login requirement.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the Fabrik extension to version 4.7.3 or later
  • If an upgrade cannot be applied immediately, restrict or disable the list filter functionality for public users by applying IP‑based access control or temporarily deactivating the extension in production environments
  • Configure the database user used by Joomla with the least privileges necessary and monitor for anomalous query activity to detect unauthorized data access
