CVE-2026-9586
Unauthenticated SQL Injection Leading to Remote Code Execution in Switchvox SMB
Description
An unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition 8.3 (104997). The /pa endpoint processes XML content beginning with <PolycomIPPhone> and directly concatenates the user-controlled PhoneIP value into PostgreSQL queries without sanitization or parameterization. An unauthenticated remote attacker can execute arbitrary SQL statements against the backend PostgreSQL database using a single crafted request, including database operations and remote code execution.
In plain language
AI Act nowCVE-2026-9586 is an unauthenticated flaw in Switchvox SMB Edition that lets an attacker remotely send one crafted request and run code on the server; if your Switchvox system is reachable on the network, a typical small business should treat this as urgent because it’s actively being exploited.
Unauthenticated SQL injection in Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition at the /pa endpoint (Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition 8.3 (104997)) allows an attacker to inject malicious content from the PhoneIP XML field into PostgreSQL queries, leading to remote code execution; it is listed in CISA KEV and exploitation has been reported in the wild.
What to do now
- Check whether you are running Sangoma Switchvox SMB Edition 8.3 (104997).
- Check whether the Switchvox /pa endpoint is reachable from the internet (or any untrusted network), since the attack needs no login and no user action.
- If you are on 8.3 (104997) or the system is externally reachable, isolate the Switchvox host immediately (limit access to trusted admin networks only).
- Upgrade Switchvox SMB Edition to 8.4.0.2 to remove the vulnerable code path.
- After upgrading, monitor for any signs of unauthorized activity (especially outbound connections consistent with reverse shells) and review access logs around the /pa endpoint.
