Technical details

A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability exists in Dolibarr ERP & CRM v21.0.1 within the User module's extra fields configuration. The flaw is classified as a code injection (CWE-94) where administrator-defined expressions in 'computed fields' are improperly sanitized before evaluation during page rendering. This vulnerability specifically bypasses previous mitigations implemented for CVE-2024-40137. While the CVSS vector suggests a requirement for user interaction, the primary attack vector involves an authenticated administrator modifying field parameters to achieve server-side execution. A patch has been committed to the Dolibarr GitHub repository to address this issue.
