Article L235-12 of the French Commercial code

Neither the company nor the members may rely on a nullity against third parties acting in good faith. However, nullity resulting from incapacity or a defect in consent may be relied on even against third parties, by the incapable person and his legal representatives, or by the partner whose consent was taken by mistake, fraud or violence.

Article L235-12

Ni la société ni les associés ne peuvent se prévaloir d’une nullité à l’égard des tiers de bonne foi. Cependant, la nullité résultant de l’incapacité ou d’un vice du consentement est opposable même aux tiers, par l’incapable et ses représentants légaux, ou par l’associé dont le consentement a été surpris par erreur, dol ou violence.
