Summary

CVE-2026-39325 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Churchcrm Churchcrm. Its CVSS base score is 7.2 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 17th 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.

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-2026-39325 is an SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) affecting ChurchCRM, an open-source church management system, in versions prior to 7.1.0, with the issue specifically identified in 7.0.5. The flaw resides in the /SettingsUser.php endpoint, where authenticated administrative users can inject arbitrary SQL statements through the "type" array parameter via the "index" parameter, potentially allowing unauthorized access to or manipulation of database contents.

The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating it is exploitable over the network with low complexity, requiring high privileges (authenticated admin access) but no user interaction. An attacker with administrative credentials could extract sensitive information from the database, modify records, or disrupt availability, leading to significant data compromise or system tampering.

The official GitHub security advisory (GHSA-cf68-g7vf-9xrq) confirms the vulnerability is remediated in ChurchCRM 7.1.0. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to 7.1.0 or later to mitigate the risk, and administrators are advised to review access controls for the /SettingsUser.php endpoint in the interim.

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.

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.
