Description
EGroupware is a Web based groupware server written in PHP. A SQL Injection vulnerability exists in the core components of EGroupware prior to versions 23.1.20260113 and 26.0.20260113, specifically in the Nextmatch filter processing. The flaw allows authenticated attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the WHERE clause of database queries. This is achieved by exploiting a PHP type juggling issue where JSON decoding converts numeric strings into integers, bypassing the is_int() security check used by the application. Versions 23.1.20260113 and 26.0.20260113 patch the vulnerability.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for egroupware/egroupware, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update egroupware/egroupware to 23.1.20260113 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2026-22243 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.
How O3 protects you
O3 Security's impact-aware SCA analyses which vulnerable code paths your application actually calls, so a match like CVE-2026-22243 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to CVE-2026-22243. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
