CVE-2026-34186
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 · uneditedImproper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command vulnerability allows SQL Injection via custom fields. This issue affects Pandora FMS: from 777 through 800
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 confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in Pandora FMS custom fields (versions 777-800) allows attackers to inject malicious SQL commands through unsanitized input in custom field parameters. The high CVSS score of 8.8 indicates significant risk to data confidentiality and integrity.

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 installed Pandora FMS versionAccess the Pandora FMS administration console and navigate to 'Setup' > 'General' > 'About' to view the installed version number, or query the system directly via command line if you have server accessAffected if The installed version is 777 or higher but below 800.1
-
Verify custom fields are configuredIn the Pandora FMS console, go to 'Manage Agents' > 'Custom Fields' to see if any custom fields have been created for agents or modulesAffected if Custom fields exist in the system, as the SQL injection only affects this feature
-
Check custom field data handlingReview the database tables related to custom fields (typically table prefix followed by tcustom_field or similar) to identify any injected SQL payloads in field values, or examine HTTP requests to custom field endpoints for suspicious input patternsAffected if Malicious SQL syntax is found in custom field value records in the database
-
Inspect web server logs for SQL injection attemptsReview web server access logs (Apache/Nginx) for requests to custom field handling endpoints (such as ajax.php or included PHP files) containing SQL operators like UNION, SELECT, or comment characters in parameter valuesAffected if Suspicious SQL injection patterns are observed in recent web logs targeting custom field functionality
You are affected if running Pandora FMS version 777 through 800 (exclusive of 800.1) and using the custom fields feature, as the SQL injection only applies under these specific conditions.

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 · scoped800.1
Apply vendor patch immediately or upgrade to a fixed version. Until then, implement input validation on custom field endpoints and enforce least-privilege database accounts to limit injection impact.
800.1
- 1. Create a full backup of the Pandora FMS database and configuration files
- 2. Review the official Pandora FMS upgrade documentation for version 800.1
- 3. Download Pandora FMS version 800.1 or later from the official source (pandorafms.com)
- 4. Execute the upgrade procedure according to the official documentation
- 5. Verify the installation by logging into the console
- 6. Test that custom fields functionality works correctly
- 7. Confirm the SQL injection vulnerability is resolved by verifying the fix is applied
