CVE-2024-50332
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 · uneditedSuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Insufficient input value validation causes Blind SQL injection in DeleteRelationShip. This issue has been addressed in versions 7.14.6 and 8.7.1. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
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 confidenceSuiteCRM versions prior to 7.14.6 and 8.7.1 contain a blind SQL injection vulnerability in the DeleteRelationShip function due to insufficient input validation. An attacker with access to the CRM can inject malicious SQL queries through unvalidated input parameters, potentially exfiltrating sensitive data from the database.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify SuiteCRM version installedLocate the version file in the SuiteCRM installation directory. For v7, check include/VCargo.php or the admin panel under 'About'. For v8, check the version.json file or admin panel.Affected if The installed version is below 7.14.6, or is 8.0.0 through 8.7.0
-
Confirm DeleteRelationShip function existsSearch the codebase for the DeleteRelationShip function definition. In v7, look in modules/*/DeleteRelationship.php or similar. In v8, check the API endpoint handling relationship deletion.Affected if The function exists in the installation, indicating the vulnerable code path is present
-
Verify CRM user access levelThe vulnerability requires an attacker to have access to the CRM. Check which user roles have access to relationship deletion features in the CRM UI or API.Affected if Authenticated users with access to relationship management features can reach the vulnerable function
-
Review input validation in DeleteRelationShipExamine the source code of the DeleteRelationShip function to determine if input parameters are validated, sanitized, or use parameterized queries. Look for direct use of user input in SQL statements.Affected if Parameters passed to SQL queries are not properly sanitized or bound
The environment is affected if SuiteCRM version is below 7.14.6 or between 8.0.0 and 8.7.0, and the DeleteRelationShip function lacks proper input validation for SQL injection.
