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
ChurchCRM is an open-source church management system. In ChurchCRM 6.2.0 and earlier, there is a time-based blind SQL injection in the handling of the 1FieldSec parameter. Injecting SLEEP() causes deterministic server-side delays, proving the value is incorporated into a SQL query without proper parameterization. The issue allows data exfiltration and modification via blind techniques.

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.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-89

User input is woven into a database query, letting an attacker rewrite the query's logic. From there they can read, alter, or destroy data — frequently the entire database. The reliable fix is parameterised queries (prepared statements), so input is always treated as data and never as SQL.

Recommended fix High confidence

Latest stable release after 6.2.0 (verify commit 719a6bc is included)

  1. 1. Backup your ChurchCRM database before any upgrade
  2. 2. Navigate to your ChurchCRM installation directory
  3. 3. Check the current installed version in the application or via git tag
  4. 4. Fetch the latest changes from the upstream repository: git fetch --all
  5. 5. Pull the latest version or checkout the commit 719a6bc73245c40e3c30dae6229daaecd451e59f which contains the fix
  6. 6. Run database migrations if required: php bin/cake migrations migrate or similar CLI command
  7. 7. Clear application cache
  8. 8. Verify the upgrade by logging in and confirming the 1FieldSec parameter is now properly parameterized
Caveat Minor - review release notes for any breaking changes between 6.2.0 and the target version
