Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2023-5350 is a SQL injection vulnerability, tracked as CWE-89, that affects the SuiteCRM application in the salesagility/suitecrm repository prior to version 7.14.1. The flaw received a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.1, reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no requirements for authentication or user interaction, with impacts limited to high confidentiality and integrity loss.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can supply crafted input that is passed directly into SQL queries, allowing arbitrary data extraction or modification within the application's database. Successful exploitation can therefore expose or alter sensitive CRM records without any prior credentials or user assistance.
The referenced commit c43eaa311fb010b7928983e6afc6f9075c3996aa and the associated huntr.dev report document the fix that was merged to address the injection; administrators should upgrade to SuiteCRM 7.14.1 or later to eliminate the vulnerable code paths. The EPSS score has remained flat at its peak value of 0.1528 with no material increase observed after disclosure.

Likely Mitigating Controls AI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
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.
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.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
The same secure-coding and static-analysis activities surface missing neutralization of SQL metacharacters before the system is accepted.
Early warnings and shared best-practice information help organizations apply the latest remediation techniques against SQL-injection vulnerabilities.
Threat-intelligence feeds that surface new SQL-injection campaigns enable rapid updates to query-construction defenses and detection signatures before exploitation occurs.
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.
Language-specific secure coding rules, peer review and SAST together prevent the construction of SQL statements from untrusted data without proper parameterization or escaping.
