Summary
Centreon vulnerable to SQL Injection
A SQL injection vulnerability in Centreon affects unknown code of the file formContactGroup.php of the component Contact Groups Form. The manipulation of the argument cg_id leads to sql injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. Version 22.10.0-beta1 contains a patch for this issue.
Impact
Untrusted input alters a database query, allowing the attacker to read or modify data the query was not intended to access. Typical impact: data disclosure or modification.
CVE-2022-3827 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). The vector is network-reachable, no privileges required, and no user interaction. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (22.10.0-beta1); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2022-3827? CVE-2022-3827 is a critical-severity SQL injection vulnerability in centreon/centreon (composer), affecting versions < 22.10.0-beta1. It is fixed in 22.10.0-beta1. Untrusted input alters a database query, allowing the attacker to read or modify data the query was not intended to access.
- How severe is CVE-2022-3827? CVE-2022-3827 has a CVSS score of 9.8 (Critical). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
- Which versions of centreon/centreon are affected by CVE-2022-3827? centreon/centreon (composer) versions < 22.10.0-beta1 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2022-3827? Yes. CVE-2022-3827 is fixed in 22.10.0-beta1. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2022-3827 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2022-3827 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2022-3827 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
- How do I fix CVE-2022-3827? Upgrade
centreon/centreonto 22.10.0-beta1 or later.
