SugarCRM <= 14.0.0 (css/preview) LESS Code Injection Vulnerability

https://www.sugarcrm.com

• Affected Versions:

All commercial versions before 13.0.4 and 14.0.1.

• Vulnerability Description:

User input passed through GET parameters to the /css/preview REST API endpoint is not properly sanitized before parsing it as LESS code. This can be exploited by remote, unauthenticated attackers to inject and execute arbitrary LESS directives. By abusing the @import LESS statement, an attacker can trigger Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) or read arbitrary local files on the web server, potentially leading to the disclosure of sensitive information.
