CVE-2026-65874: Apache Fineract SQL injection in centers and datatables endpoints

CVE-2026-65874 · Severity: info · Published 2026-10-30

Apache Fineract is a microfinance platform that manages customer accounts, loans, and transactions.

How to fix

Fixed in: 1.16.1

Technical details

The vulnerability is a time-based blind SQL injection flaw in the GET /api/v1/centers and GET /api/v1/datatables endpoints, where the orderBy, sortOrder, and order parameters are concatenated directly into the SQL ORDER BY clause. Although regex-based input validation exists, it can be bypassed by an authenticated attacker with read access. The fix validates that order parameters reference only actual columns and rejects malformed input.

Affected products
