Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Frappe is a full-stack web application framework. Prior to versions 14.64.0 and 15.0.0, SQL injection from a particular whitelisted method can result in access to data which the user doesn't have permission to access. Versions 14.64.0 and 15.0.0 contain a patch for this issue. No known workarounds are available.

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 Frappe framework versions prior to 14.64.0 and 15.0.0 allows authenticated users to bypass permission checks through a whitelisted method, enabling unauthorized access to data they should not have permissions to view.

MitigationUpgrade Frappe to version 14.64.0 or 15.0.0 which contains the security patch; no workarounds are available.

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. Check installed Frappe version
    Run `bench version` or inspect the file `apps/frappe/__init__.py` to find the version string
    Affected if The version is lower than 14.64.0
  2. Verify user authentication is enabled
    Confirm that the Frappe site has user accounts and login is enabled by checking Site Config or attempting access to the login page at /app
    Affected if The site allows user login, enabling authenticated users to exploit the permission bypass
  3. Identify if custom whitelisted methods exist
    Review custom app Python files for methods decorated with `@frappe.whitelist()` that query DocTypes, especially those that may access sensitive data
    Affected if Custom whitelisted methods are present that could be leveraged to bypass permission checks

The environment is affected if Frappe version is below 14.64.0 and the site permits authenticated user access, allowing exploitation of the permission bypass vulnerability.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 14.64.0 or later
Fixed in 14.64.0
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Frappe to version 14.64.0 or 15.0.0 which contains the security patch; no workarounds are available.

Recommended fix High confidence

14.64.0 (or 15.0.0 if upgrading to the major version 15 branch)

  1. 1. Back up your entire Frappe instance including database and all site files
  2. 2. Connect to your server and navigate to your Frappe bench directory (usually ~/frappe-bench)
  3. 3. Run `bench version` to confirm current Frappe version is below 14.64.0
  4. 4. Run `bench get-app frappe --branch version-14` to fetch the version-14 branch
  5. 5. Run `bench update --upgrade` to apply the upgrade
  6. 6. Alternatively, run `pip install frappe==14.64.0` for a specific version install
  7. 7. Run `bench migrate` after upgrade completes to apply any database migrations
  8. 8. Verify the upgrade was successful by running `bench version` and confirming it shows 14.64.0 or later
Caveat Major version upgrades (14.x to 15.x) may introduce breaking changes; review Frappe release notes before upgrading
