Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 19.4th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified are NIST 800-53 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) and SI-2 (Flaw Remediation).

Deeper analysis

CVE-2020-37006 is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in berliCRM version 1.0.24. The issue affects the 'src_record' parameter, which is vulnerable through a crafted POST request to the index.php endpoint, enabling remote attackers to inject malicious SQL code and manipulate database queries.

Unauthenticated remote attackers can exploit this vulnerability with low complexity, as reflected in its CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:N). Successful exploitation allows extraction of sensitive database information or limited modification of data, without impacting availability.
