The vulnerabilities include field-level security bypasses, plaintext exposure of encrypted data, and misconfigurations in sharing settings that could lead to unauthorized data access and session hijacking. While Salesforce fixed 5 vulnerabilities, 16 others were classified as customer-side misconfigurations, emphasizing the shared responsibility for security. Organizations should implement robust field-level security, harden component permissions, and conduct regular configuration audits to mitigate these risks. ## Content # Introduction Recent security research has unveiled critical vulnerabilities in Salesforce Industry Clouds, emphasizing the importance of proactive security measures. AppOmni researchers have identified over 20 weaknesses within Salesforce OmniStudio, including five critical Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that pose significant risks to organizational data. # Key Findings The vulnerabilities discovered span across various components such as FlexCards, Data Mappers, and Integration Procedures. This research reveals that low-code platforms, despite their user-friendly nature, can introduce serious security challenges if not appropriately configured. ### Critical Vulnerabilities 1. **Field-Level Security Bypasses**: Allow unauthorized users to access sensitive data. 2. **Plaintext Exposure of Encrypted Data**: Encryption mechanisms compromised, leading to potential data leaks. 3. **Misconfigurations in Default Sharing Settings**: Left unattended, these can lead to unauthorized access and session hijacking. # Implications These vulnerabilities could lead to unauthorized data exposure, session stealing, and credential leaks. The affected components, including FlexCards and Data Mappers, are particularly susceptible to data breaches when subjected to caching errors and session leaks. Salesforce has addressed five of these vulnerabilities by issuing CVEs and providing fixes. However, it classified 16 others as customer-side misconfigurations, highlighting the shared responsibility between the platform provider and users. # Recommendations To safeguard against these risks, organizations should take the following measures: - **Implement Robust Field-Level Security**: Properly configure field-level permissions to prevent unauthorized data access. - **Harden Component Permissions**: Regularly review and adjust component settings to minimize exposure risks. - **Conduct Regular Configuration Audits**: Periodic assessments of configurations can help identify and rectify potential weaknesses. By addressing both platform vulnerabilities and user configurations, companies can strengthen their security posture in Salesforce's low-code environments. # Conclusion The discovery of these vulnerabilities in Salesforce Industry Clouds serves as a reminder that security should never be an afterthought. Organizations must actively ensure their systems are configured correctly and remain vigilant against emerging threats in low-code platforms. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Don’t just attend KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon, Merge Forward your experience\!](https://daily.dev/posts/don-t-just-attend-kubecon-cloudnativecon-merge-forward-your-experience--l0rpp73x8) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Announcing H2 2026 KCDs](https://daily.dev/posts/announcing-h2-2026-kcds-m96goajm1) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Two months of Open Community Groups](https://daily.dev/posts/two-months-of-open-community-groups-asf52zhbs) · CNCF · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Unveils Schedule for KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Europe 2026](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-unveils-schedule-for-kubecon-cloudnativecon-europe-2026-ikhcoa5cb) · CNCF · 2 upvotes · 0 comments - [CNCF Debuts KubeCon \+ CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule](https://daily.dev/posts/cncf-debuts-kubecon-cloudnativecon-japan-2026-schedule-xp5pyudub) · CNCF · 1 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#security](https://daily.dev/tags/security), [#sql](https://daily.dev/tags/sql), [#vulnerability](https://daily.dev/tags/vulnerability), [#nocode](https://daily.dev/tags/nocode), [#salesforce](https://daily.dev/tags/salesforce) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/security-vulnerabilities-in-salesforce-industry-cloud-a-comprehensive-analysis-j7h1fq6ac) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Security Vulnerabilities in Salesforce Industry Cloud: A Comprehensive Analysis","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/security-vulnerabilities-in-salesforce-industry-cloud-a-comprehensive-analysis-j7h1fq6ac","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/security-vulnerabilities-in-salesforce-industry-cloud-a-comprehensive-analysis-j7h1fq6ac"},"datePublished":"2025-06-10T18:56:54.986Z","dateModified":"2025-06-11T18:06:07.132Z","description":"AppOmni researchers discovered over 20 security vulnerabilities in Salesforce OmniStudio, including 5 critical CVEs affecting FlexCards, Data Mappers, and...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/8fe9eeb967de205fd6743e2535f16178?_a=AQAEulh","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/8fe9eeb967de205fd6743e2535f16178?_a=AQAEulh","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/security-vulnerabilities-in-salesforce-industry-cloud-a-comprehensive-analysis-j7h1fq6ac","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":1},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"security,sql,vulnerability,nocode,salesforce","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Security Vulnerabilities in Salesforce Industry Cloud: A Comprehensive Analysis"}]} ```
