dolibarr: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2025-67486 is a high-severity improper neutralization of special elements in output used by a downstream component vulnerability in dolibarr, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with administrator privileges, without any action from a user. Affected dolibarr versions: <= 22.0.2. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.88% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 60% of scored CVEs.

Official description

Dolibarr is an enterprise resource planning (ERP) and customer relationship management (CRM) software package. Versions 22.0.2 and earlier contains an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the user extrafields functionality. User-controlled input from the "computed value" field is passed to PHP's `eval()` function without adequate sanitization, allowing authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary PHP code on the server. As of time of publication, no patched versions are available.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Programming languages and supporting technologies might be chosen which are not subject to these issues.
  • Utilize an appropriate mix of allowlist and denylist parsing to filter control-plane syntax from all input.
