CVE-2025-41102
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 · uneditedHTML injection vulnerability found in Fairsketch's RISE CRM Framework v3.8.1, which consist of an HTML code injection due to lack of proper validation of user inputs by sending a POST request in parameter 'title' in '/events/save'.
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 · moderate confidenceHTML injection vulnerability in RISE CRM v3.8.1 where the 'title' POST parameter in the '/events/save' endpoint lacks proper input validation, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary HTML code via unsanitized user input.

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 RISE CRM installationLocate the RISE CRM application in your web server directory. Common paths include /var/www/html/, /home/[user]/public_html/, or C:\inetpub\wwwroot\. Look for files with 'rise', 'crm', or 'project manager' in the name.Affected if RISE CRM (Fairsketch Rise Ultimate Project Manager) is found on the server
-
Determine installed versionCheck the version.php file in the application root directory, or log into the CRM admin panel and navigate to Settings > About or App Info to view the version number.Affected if The installed version is 3.8.1 or any version prior to 3.9
-
Verify the /events/save endpoint existsCheck if the file application/controllers/Events.php exists and contains a 'save' method, or attempt to access /events/save via HTTP OPTIONS request to confirm the route is registered in the routing configuration.Affected if The /events/save endpoint is accessible and responds to requests
-
Test title parameter for HTML injectionSend a POST request to /events/save with a test payload in the title parameter such as '<script>alert(1)</script>' or '<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>', then query the stored value via the events list or API to see if the HTML is rendered unchanged.Affected if The submitted HTML payload is stored and rendered without encoding or sanitization, indicating the vulnerability is present
You are affected if RISE CRM version is below 3.9 and the /events/save endpoint renders unsanitized HTML from the title parameter.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped3.9
Implement strict input validation and output encoding on the 'title' parameter in the '/events/save' endpoint to neutralize malicious HTML content before storage or rendering.
version 3.9
- 1. Back up your current RISE Ultimate Project Manager installation and database.
- 2. Download the latest version 3.9 of RISE Ultimate Project Manager from the official vendor (Fairsketch).
- 3. Review the vendor's upgrade instructions provided with version 3.9.
- 4. Upload and install the new version 3.9 files to your server, following the documented upgrade procedure.
- 5. Verify the installation completed successfully.
- 6. Test the '/events/save' endpoint to confirm the vulnerability is patched and the title parameter now properly validates/sanitizes input.
