Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical was found in SuiteCRM up to 7.15.0/8.9.2. Affected by this vulnerability is the function retrieve of the file include/OutboundEmail/OutboundEmail.php. The manipulation of the argument id with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3, the `retrieve()` function in `include/OutboundEmail/OutboundEmail.php` fails to properly neutralize the user controlled `$id` parameter. It is assumed that the function calling `retrieve()` will appropriately quote and sanitize the user input. However, two locations have been identified that can be reached through the `EmailUIAjax` action on the `Email()` module where this is not the case. As such, it is possible for an authenticated user to perform SQL injection through the `retrieve()` function. This affects the latest major versions 7.15 and 8.9. As there do not appear to be restrictions on which tables can be called, it would be possible for an attacker to retrieve arbitrary information from the database, including user information and password hashes. Versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3 patch the issue.

The advisory is shared at github.com. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2026-29099 since 03/03/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. The attack can be launched remotely. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1505 for this issue.
