CVE-2026-3105
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 · uneditedSummaryThis advisory addresses a SQL injection vulnerability in the API endpoint used for retrieving contact activities. A vulnerability exists in the query construction for the Contact Activity timeline where the parameter responsible for determining the sort direction was not strictly validated against an allowlist, potentially allowing authenticated users to inject arbitrary SQL commands via the API. MitigationPlease update to 4.4.19, 5.2.10, 6.0.8, 7.0.1 or later. WorkaroundsNone. ReferencesIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory: Email us at [email protected]
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.

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 Mautic installation versionCheck the version.php or config/local.php file in the Mautic installation directory, or access the Mautic dashboard and navigate to the system information page to view the installed version.Affected if The installed version falls within any of these ranges: >= 2.10.0 and < 4.4.19, OR >= 5.0.0 and < 5.2.10, OR >= 6.0.0 and < 6.0.8, OR >= 7.0.0 and < 7.0.1
-
Verify API access is enabledCheck if the Mautic API is enabled in Configuration > API Settings, and confirm that user authentication to the API is permitted.Affected if The Mautic API is enabled and users can authenticate to access the Contact Activity timeline endpoint
-
Identify API endpoint exposureLocate the Contact Activity timeline API endpoint (typically /api/contacts/{id}/activity) and verify it accepts the 'sort' direction parameter without proper allowlist validation.Affected if The API endpoint is accessible to authenticated users and accepts unsanitized input for the sort direction parameter
You are affected if your Mautic installation version is within the vulnerable ranges AND the API is enabled, allowing authenticated users to potentially exploit the unsanitized sort direction parameter in the Contact Activity timeline endpoint.

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 · scoped4.4.195.2.106.0.8
Update to version 4.4.19, 5.2.10, 6.0.8, 7.0.1 or later to obtain the patched version with proper allowlist validation for the sort direction parameter.
4.4.19, 5.2.10, 6.0.8, or 7.0.1 (select based on your current major version branch)
- 1. Backup your Mautic database and files before attempting any upgrade
- 2. Review the Mautic upgrade documentation for your specific version branch at docs.mautic.org
- 3. For Mautic 4.x: Upgrade to version 4.4.19 or later
- 4. For Mautic 5.x: Upgrade to version 5.2.10 or later
- 5. For Mautic 6.x: Upgrade to version 6.0.8 or later
- 6. For Mautic 7.x: Upgrade to version 7.0.1 or later
- 7. After upgrade, verify the API endpoint /api/contacts/{id}/activities is functioning correctly
- 8. Test that the sort parameter now properly validates against the allowed values (ASC/DESC)
