Description (CISA)
Sangoma Switchvox contains a SQL injection vulnerability which allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL statements against the backend PostgreSQL database using a single crafted request, including database operations and remote code execution.
Required action (CISA)
Apply mitigations in accordance with vendor instructions, ensuring compliance with CISA’s BOD 26-04 Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk (see URL in Notes) guidance and CISA’s “Forensics Triage Requirements” (see URL in Notes). Follow applicable BOD 26-04 guidance for cloud services or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. Stakeholders are responsible for evaluating each asset's internet exposure and ensuring adherence to BOD 26-04 patching guidelines.
What admins should do now
- Affected? Check whether Sangoma Switchvox is in use and which version runs (package manager, admin UI,
--version). - Apply the vendor patch or workaround as soon as it exists. If that is not possible right away: restrict outside access (firewall, VPN, reverse proxy).
- Review logs back to 2 September 2026: unusual logins, new files, unexpected processes, outbound connections.
- If you suspect a compromise: isolate the system, rotate credentials, check the last backup from before the incident.
The deadline applies to US federal agencies. It is still a useful yardstick for everyone: when a flaw is attacked in the wild, waiting is not an option.
