DescriptionSuiteCRM is an open-source, enterprise-ready Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software application. Prior to 7.15.2 and 8.10.2, the workflow controller uses a path-traversal-capable aow_action value in require_once() without constraining the resolved file. The affected flow begins at modules/AOW_WorkFlow/controller.php and uses aow_action, and require_once() to carry attacker-controlled data or authorization state into the security-sensitive operation. An authenticated user with the WorkFlow role can include executable PHP, obtain server-side code execution, access CRM data and configuration secrets, and establish persistent access. This issue is fixed in versions 7.15.2 and 8.10.2.
