Executive brief
Paroiciel is a management software used by Catholic parishes and other organizations to manage member records and pastoral activities. A security flaw allows logged-in users to run unauthorized database commands, which could lead to the theft of sensitive personal information or the disruption of parish records. This vulnerability puts the privacy of community members and the integrity of organizational data at risk.
Technical details
An SQL injection vulnerability exists in Paroiciel version 11.20 and potentially earlier versions due to improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands (CWE-89). The flaw is present in several PHP endpoints, including egeq.php via the eGeqIdEquipe parameter, trec.php via the tRecIdListe parameter, and zpro.php via the zProIdPro parameter. An authenticated attacker can exploit this by sending crafted GET requests containing malicious SQL payloads. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to extract sensitive data from the database, including version details, table structures, and user information. While the vendor website mentions a newer version 11.30, it is not explicitly confirmed if these specific vulnerabilities are patched in that release.
