CVE-2026-54348
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 · uneditedFroxlor is open source server administration software. Prior to 2.3.8, the Admins.add and Admins.update endpoints in lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Admins.php accept an attacker-controlled ipaddress array and store it as JSON in panel_admins.ip without enforcing numeric element types. When the poisoned account later calls IpsAndPorts.listing, lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/IpsAndPorts.php decodes the array and concatenates its elements into a SQL IN clause without casting or parameterization; the same unsafe pattern is present in lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Domains.php. An authenticated administrator with change_serversettings permission can store a UNION-based payload and trigger it through the poisoned account to retrieve arbitrary database data, including administrator login names and bcrypt password hashes, with potential privilege escalation and broader database impact. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.8.
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 analysisUser 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.

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 · scopedFroxlor 2.3.8 or later
- Check current Froxlor version by viewing the version file or admin interface
- Create a complete backup of the Froxlor database and configuration files
- Download Froxlor version 2.3.8 or later from the official source (e.g., froxlor.org or GitHub releases)
- Extract and replace the existing Froxlor files with the new version
- Run any included database migration scripts if present
- Log in to the admin interface and verify the upgrade was successful
- Confirm the Admins.add and Admins.update endpoints now properly validate ipaddress array elements before storage
- Test that IpsAndPorts.listing and Domains.php properly handle the ipaddress data with type casting or parameterization
