HighCVSS 8.3 · v4.0—Proof of concept Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 33/100)

  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.27% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: frappe hrms 14.38.2, 15.64.0, 16.18.0.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to frappe hrms 14.38.2, 15.64.0, 16.18.0 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Frappe HRMS 14.x before 14.38.2, 15.x before 15.64.0, and 16.x before 16.18.0 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in some endpoints caused by missing input validation. Any authenticated attacker, including a low-privilege account, can send specially crafted requests to these endpoints to extract sensitive information from the database.
