CVE-2026-72607Koha Community Koha - Stored SQL Injection via agefield in Automatic Item Modifications by Age
High 7.1
In plain English
A high-severity SQL injection in Koha from Koha Community. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.5% (higher than 39% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
A stored SQL injection vulnerability in Koha through 24.11.17, 25.05.12, 25.11.06, and 26.05.01 allows authenticated staff with the tools => items_batchmod permission to read arbitrary database contents by storing a SQL payload in the agefield value of an automatic item modification rule. The agefield value is stored verbatim to the system preference and later interpolated without parameterization into a SQL query in C4::Items::ToggleNewStatus (line 1228) when the scheduled cron job executes. The injection is SELECT-only under standard MariaDB/MySQL DBI single-statement execution; a time-based SLEEP payload is also achievable via the cron trigger. An attacker can read the entire Koha database including patron PII and staff bcrypt password hashes.
