1) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31840)

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

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL commands.

The vulnerability exists due to improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command in the PostgreSQL query handling for dot-notation field names when processing queries that use dot-notation field names with the sort parameter. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted query parameter to execute arbitrary SQL commands.

The issue only affects deployments using a PostgreSQL database and may also affect queries that use dot-notation field names with the distinct and where query parameters.
