Impact

IBM Enterprise Build of Quarkus versions 3.27.1 through 3.27.5.SP1 and 3.33.1 through 3.33.3.SP1 contain a SQL injection flaw that permits a remote, unauthenticated attacker to inject crafted SQL statements. The flaw can allow the attacker to view, add, modify, or delete data in the back‑end database, compromising confidentiality, integrity, and potentially availability of the application data.

Affected Systems

Affected systems are IBM Enterprise Build of Quarkus, specifically versions 3.27.1 to 3.27.5.SP1 and 3.33.1 to 3.33.3.SP1. Upgrading to 3.27.5.SP2 or 3.33.3.SP2 removes the vulnerability.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score is 8.6, indicating a high severity vulnerability. No EPSS score is available, and it is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack vector is remote and unauthenticated, requiring the attacker to send specially crafted SQL payloads to the application’s exposed endpoints that interact with the database. Once exploited, the attacker can manipulate persistent data, leading to data loss, unauthorized disclosure, or service disruption.

Description A flaw was found in Hibernate ORM. This vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to inject arbitrary SQL commands into the underlying database by manipulating the JSON path argument. The issue arises from improper handling of JSON path segments in the JsonPathHelper.appendInlinedJsonPathIncludingPassingClause() method, specifically when using Oracle, DB2, or HANA database dialects. Successful exploitation can lead to authorization bypass and significant data exfiltration, enabling the attacker to access sensitive information from the database. IBM Enterprise Build of Quarkus 3.27.1 through 3.27.5.SP1, and 3.33.1 through 3.33.3.SP1 is vulnerable to SQL injection. A remote unauthenticated attacker could send specially crafted SQL statements, which could allow the attacker to view, add, modify, or delete information in the back-end database.
