# SuiteCRM: crafted input lets low-privilege users read and alter database records

SuiteCRM's document revision handler places user input directly into an SQL UPDATE statement, and a crafted XSS-prefixed input lets a literal quote through the sanitizer. A low-privileged user with Documents access can read database data and mass-update linked document records.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## How to check

- Check the installed SuiteCRM version in the application's version file or admin screen; `7.15.x` below `7.15.2` or `8.x` below `8.10.2` is affected.
- Confirm whether users with Documents module access are untrusted or external accounts.

## Fix

- SuiteCRM `7.15.2`
- SuiteCRM `8.10.2`

## From the sources

SuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, GetLatestRevision.php interpolates get_latest_for_id directly into an SQL UPDATE statement. Although securexss() normally entity-encodes quotes, an input prefixed with an XSS payload makes AntiXSS select a processed string instead of the encoded backup, allowing a literal quote to reach the query. A low-privileged user with Documents module access can disclose database data and mass-update linked_documents records, while stacked statements and arbitrary DROP or INSERT operations are not supported by this vector. This issue is fixed in versions 7.15.2 and 8.10.2.
