CVE-2026-28210 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Sangoma Freepbx. Its CVSS base score is 8.6 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 22th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2026-28210 is a SQL query injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in the cdr (Call Data Record) module of FreePBX, an open source IP PBX software. The flaw affects FreePBX versions prior to 16.0.49 and 17.0.7, allowing malicious SQL queries to be injected through the module. It has 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), indicating high severity due to its potential for significant impact.
An attacker with low privileges (PR:L), such as an authenticated user on the network-accessible system (AV:N), can exploit this vulnerability with low complexity (AC:L) and no user interaction required (UI:N). Successful exploitation enables high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impacts (C:H/I:H/A:H), potentially allowing arbitrary SQL command execution to extract sensitive call data, modify records, or disrupt PBX operations.
The issue has been addressed in FreePBX versions 16.0.49 and 17.0.7, as detailed in the GitHub security advisory at https://github.com/FreePBX/security-reporting/security/advisories/GHSA-59gp-632h-c54v. Security practitioners should update to these patched versions and review access controls for the cdr module to mitigate risks.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover SQLi flaws before deployment but does not stop their introduction.
Input validation directly stops untrusted data from reaching SQL query construction without neutralization.
Secure engineering principles require parameterized queries and input sanitization that structurally eliminate SQLi.
System monitoring can identify attempted SQLi exploitation via anomalous queries after the weakness exists.

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.

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.
