CVE-2026-73698: FileRun < 2026.3.0 Authenticated SQL Injection via Groups Add Action

• Severity: high (CVSS 7.2 v3.1)
• Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
• EPSS: 0.6% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
• Public exploit or detection template: none known
• Published: 2026-09-10 · updated 2026-09-15
• Weakness: CWE-89

Description

FileRun before 2026.3.0 contains a SQL injection vulnerability that allows delegated or simple administrators to execute arbitrary SQL by submitting the description parameter as an array, causing the getValuesString() method in DB/DP.php to interpolate raw array values directly into an INSERT statement without parameterization. Because the underlying PDO connection uses emulated prepared statements enabling stacked queries, attackers can manipulate the df_users_permissions table to escalate a delegated administrator account to superuser privileges, and may additionally achieve code execution via unsanitized path values passed to require_once in the logs listing component.
