SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3, SuiteCRM contains an authenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in the Configurator module. An authenticated administrator can bypass intended file type restrictions when uploading PDF font files, allowing arbitrary files with attacker‑controlled filenames to be written to the server. Although the upload directory is not directly web‑accessible by default, this behavior breaks security boundaries and may enable further attacks when combined with other vulnerabilities or in certain deployment configurations. Versions 7.15.1 and 8.9.3 patch the issue.
The product allows the upload or transfer of dangerous file types that are automatically processed within its environment.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/434.html →Open in CWE collection →In applications, particularly web applications, access to functionality is mitigated by an authorization framework. This framework maps Access Control Lists (ACLs) to elements of the application's functionality; particularly URL's for web apps. In the case that the administrator failed to specify an ACL for a particular element, an attacker may be able to access it with impunity. An attacker with the ability to access functionality not properly constrained by ACLs can obtain sensitive information and possibly compromise the entire application. Such an attacker can access resources that must be available only to users at a higher privilege level, can access management sections of the application, or can run queries for data that they otherwise not supposed to.
