Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-08-11 12:17 - Updated: 2026-09-03 17:51
Severity
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
An SQL injection vulnerability in CiviCRM through 6.18.alpha1 allows authenticated staff to read the entire database via the contact search RLIKE clause. The clause concatenates a user-supplied value into the SQL query without sanitization. An attacker with staff-level access can exfiltrate all database contents including donor and member records.
