NVD · unedited
SQL injection vulnerability in Cybozu Garoon 3.7 SP2 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via crafted API input.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in Cybozu Garoon version 3.7 SP2 and earlier allows authenticated remote users to execute arbitrary SQL commands through crafted API input. The vulnerability exists in the API function handling, where user-supplied data is not properly sanitized before being used in SQL queries.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of Cybozu Garoon beyond 3.7 SP2, or implement proper input validation and parameterized queries for all API endpoints to prevent SQL injection.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Cybozu Garoon version
    Access the Garoon system administration panel or check the product information file (typically found in the installation directory or via the help/about section). Look for the exact version number and service pack (SP) level.
    Affected if The installed version is 3.7 SP2 or any earlier version (3.7, 3.5, 3.0, etc.) - meaning version 3.7 or lower is affected.
  2. Confirm API function is enabled
    In the Garoon administration settings, navigate to the API or system configuration section. Verify whether the API function handling module is active and accessible to users.
    Affected if The API function module is enabled and accessible to authenticated users.
  3. Check API endpoint accessibility
    Attempt to access the Garoon API endpoints (typically at /g/api/ or similar paths under the Garoon base URL) using valid authentication credentials.
    Affected if The API endpoints are reachable and accept requests from authenticated users without additional security restrictions.
  4. Review API user permissions
    In the user management section of Garoon administration, examine which users or groups have API access permissions. Verify if standard users (non-administrators) can make API calls.
    Affected if Standard authenticated users (non-admin) have permission to invoke API functions, allowing them to supply input to API handlers.

Your environment is affected if Cybozu Garoon version 3.7 SP2 or earlier is installed AND the API function module is enabled for authenticated users.
