CVE-2026-25513
Published: 04 February 2026
Summary
CVE-2026-25513 is a high-severity Improper Input Validation (CWE-20) vulnerability in Facturascripts Facturascripts. Its CVSS base score is 8.3 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 37.2th 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-2026-25513 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in FacturaScripts, an open-source enterprise resource planning and accounting software. Affecting versions prior to 2025.81, the flaw resides in the ModelClass::getOrderBy() method of the REST API, where user-supplied sorting parameters are directly concatenated into the SQL ORDER BY clause without proper validation or sanitization. This issue impacts all API endpoints that support sorting functionality, earning a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and mapping to CWEs-20 (Improper Input Validation), CWE-89 (SQL Injection), CWE-943 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output), and CWE-1286 (Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input).
An authenticated API user with low privileges can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network with low complexity and no user interaction required. By crafting a malicious value for the sort parameter in API requests to affected endpoints, attackers can inject and execute arbitrary SQL queries, potentially leading to high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts such as unauthorized data access, modification, or deletion from the underlying database.
The vulnerability has been addressed in FacturaScripts version 2025.81. Security practitioners should upgrade to this patched version immediately. Detailed patch information is available in the GitHub commit at https://github.com/NeoRazorX/facturascripts/commit/1b6cdfa9ee1bb3365ea4a4ad753452035a027605, and further guidance is provided in the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/NeoRazorX/facturascripts/security/advisories/GHSA-cjfx-qhwm-hf99.
