Deeper analysis
CVE-2019-25452 is an SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in Dolibarr ERP/CRM version 10.0.1. The issue affects the "elemid" POST parameter in the viewcat.php endpoint, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries via crafted POST requests containing malicious SQL payloads.
Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely with low complexity, requiring no privileges or user interaction. Successful exploitation enables extraction of sensitive database information using error-based or time-based blind SQL injection techniques. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N), reflecting high confidentiality impact without affecting integrity or availability.
