Published Aug 19, 2026CWE-89EPSS 0.46%

Overview

CVE-2026-61518 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 19, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

ISPConfig contains an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the Remote API. The primary_id parameter passed to delete and update API methods is concatenated directly into SQL WHERE clauses without integer casting or parameterized query binding. The built-in SQL injection scanner does not block quote-free boolean payloads and does not reject requests in its default configuration. A remote API user holding any single low-privilege function permission can inject arbitrary SQL to delete or modify records across all tenants in the control panel database and extract arbitrary data via blind boolean inference, including password hashes and client records.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
