Update: 08/24/2023

SugarCRM security vulnerability

Status: 01/12/2023

The developers of SugarCRM have developed and deployed hotfixes after the exploit became known last week. They are available for the affected Sugar Sell, Serve, Enterprise, Professional and Ultimate systems. Version 12.0 hotfix 91155 no longer contains the flaw. Provided the instance has SugarIdentity enabled, this should have successfully prevented attacks.

The underlying vulnerability consists of a lack of input validation in email templates, allowing manipulated requests to sneak in custom PHP code. This is how crypto-mining software is pushed onto the open systems in order to use it to obtain cryptocurrencies.
