vulnerability analysis and mitigation

Overview

A critical SQL injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-3801) was discovered in IBAX go-ibax, specifically affecting the /api/v2/open/rowsInfo endpoint. The vulnerability was identified and reported on October 24, 2022, impacting versions with commits dating back to July 18, 2020 (GitHub Issue).

Technical details

The vulnerability exists in the /packages/api/database.go file where the order parameter is not properly sanitized in SQL query construction. The affected code uses fmt.Sprintf for query building, allowing direct injection of malicious SQL commands through the order parameter. This vulnerability is particularly concerning as it affects both scenarios: when the 'where' clause is empty and when it contains conditions (GitHub Issue).

Impact

The vulnerability allows attackers to spoof identity, tamper with existing data, achieve complete disclosure of all system data, potentially destroy data or make it inaccessible, and potentially gain administrator privileges on the database server (GitHub Issue).
