EUVDB-ID: #VU79454

Risk: Medium

CVSSv4.0: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39417

CWE-ID: CWE-89 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the extension script @substitutions@, which uses @extowner@, @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ inside a quoting construct. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.

Mitigation

Update the affected package postgresql15 to the latest version.
