CVE-2023-28838 — GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package

Critical CVSS 9.6

GLPI is a free asset and IT management software package. Starting in version 0.50 and prior to versions 9.5.13 and 10.0.7, a SQL Injection vulnerability allow users with access rights to statistics or reports to extract all data from database and, in some cases, write a webshell on the server.

SQL and data-query injection

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace request, message, file, and stored values into SQL, ORM query fragments, filters, sort expressions, and other data-query languages.
  • Inventory database roles, reachable schemas, multi-tenant boundaries, and whether stacked or administrative operations are enabled.
  • Check both direct queries and second-order use of previously stored values.

Remediate safely

  • Use parameterized queries or safe query builders for all values; map identifiers and operators through explicit allowlists.
  • Remove raw query concatenation and give the application account only the tables and operations it requires.
  • Update affected data-access components and add regression tests for query structure preservation with inert edge-case inputs.
