AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is an improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command, commonly known as SQL injection, in Drupal core. The flaw allows an attacker to inject arbitrary SQL statements into database queries, potentially leading to full data disclosure, data modification, or denial of service. It is identified as CWE‑89, reflecting a failure to properly validate or encode user input before its inclusion in an SQL command.

Affected Systems

Drupal core is affected across multiple major releases. The vulnerable versions include 8.9.0 through the build prior to 10.4.10, 10.5.0 through before 10.5.10, 10.6.0 through before 10.6.9, 11.0.0 through before 11.1.10, 11.2.0 through before 11.2.12, and 11.3.0 through before 11.3.10. All these versions share the same injection flaw and must be updated to the corresponding non‑vulnerable releases.

Risk and Exploitability

No EPSS data or KEV listing is available, but the repository state and the nature of SQL injection suggest a high likelihood of exploitation once the affected software is publicly exposed. The CVSS score is 6.5, indicating medium severity, yet the impact of remote code execution or data compromise makes the risk significant. It is inferred that an attacker could exploit this vector by submitting crafted input through any user‑controllable parameter that is interpolated into SQL statements, such as form fields, query strings, or administrative interfaces, without additional authentication.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest Drupal core release that addresses the SQL injection flaw (e.g., update to 10.4.10 or newer for the 10.x series, 10.5.10 or newer for the 10.5.x series, and similarly for 10.6.x, 11.0.x, 11.2.x, and 11.3.x).
  • Ensure the database account used by Drupal operates with the least privileges required; consider removing direct INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE permissions if not otherwise needed.
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, isolate the Drupal deployment behind a web application firewall that can block suspicious SQL patterns or restrict access to the affected modules until a patch is applied.
