Summary

CVE-2023-35924 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Glpi-Project Glpi. Its CVSS base score is 8.6 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

GLPI, an open-source IT asset management application, contains a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in its native inventory endpoint. The flaw affects versions 10.0.0 through 10.0.7 and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 8.6. By default the endpoint accepts unauthenticated requests, allowing remote attackers to submit crafted inventory data that is processed directly in database queries.

An unauthenticated network attacker can leverage the endpoint to extract arbitrary data from the GLPI database. The attack requires no user interaction and results in a confidentiality breach that affects resources beyond the vulnerable component itself, while leaving integrity and availability untouched.

The project addressed the issue in release 10.0.8. Official advisories recommend upgrading to that version or, as a temporary workaround, disabling the native inventory feature. The associated EPSS score has remained flat at 0.1785 with no material increase since disclosure.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly target injection flaws during coding and review so largely prevent CWE-89 introduction, yet the single broad outcome leaves residual risk from incomplete neutralization techniques or missed edge cases.

PR.AT-02 partial match
prevents

Training raises developer awareness of SQLi risks and can reduce introduction likelihood (partial) but removes none of the actual coding flaw's risk by itself since technical neutralization is still required.

finds

The same secure-coding and static-analysis activities surface missing neutralization of SQL metacharacters before the system is accepted.

prevents

Early warnings and shared best-practice information help organizations apply the latest remediation techniques against SQL-injection vulnerabilities.

prevents

Threat-intelligence feeds that surface new SQL-injection campaigns enable rapid updates to query-construction defenses and detection signatures before exploitation occurs.

prevents

Secure-coding rules and security testing phases mandate the use of parameterized queries or equivalent escaping, preventing the construction of dynamic SQL statements from untrusted input.

prevents

Language-specific secure coding rules, peer review and SAST together prevent the construction of SQL statements from untrusted data without proper parameterization or escaping.
