# CVE-2026-25773: Focalboard Second-Order SQL Injection in category reorder endpoint allows data exfiltration (unsupported product, no fix)

- Also known as: GHSA-P32Q-V29X-WQ9R, GO-2026-5524
- Severity: CVSS 8.1 (High), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Published: 2026-04-03 · Updated: 2026-04-03

## Affected

- Mattermost Focalboard: through 8.0
- github.com/mattermost/focalboard (Go): through 7.10.6
- github.com/mattermost/focalboard (Go): all versions

## Description

** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** Focalboard version 8.0 fails to sanitize category IDs before incorporating them into dynamic SQL statements when reordering categories. An attacker can inject a malicious SQL payload into the category id field, which is stored in the database and later executed unsanitized when the category reorder API processes the stored value. This Second-Order SQL Injection (Time-Based Blind) allows an authenticated attacker to exfiltrate sensitive data including password hashes of other users. NOTE: Focalboard as a standalone product is not maintained and no fix will be issued.

## What to do
