Detailsinfo
A vulnerability was found in Mattermost Focalboard up to 8.0. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown code block of the component Category Reorder API. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a sql injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-89. The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** Focalboard version 8.0 fails to sanitize category IDs before incorporating them into dynamic SQL statements when reordering categories. An attacker can inject a malicious SQL payload into the category id field, which is stored in the database and later executed unsanitized when the category reorder API processes the stored value. This Second-Order SQL Injection (Time-Based Blind) allows an authenticated attacker to exfiltrate sensitive data including password hashes of other users. NOTE: Focalboard as a standalone product is not maintained and no fix will be issued.
