spring-data-jdbc is vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic
48
Medium Risk
This Affects:
spring-data-jdbcTL;DR
Spring Data Relational does not properly escape binding values of externally-controlled input when using StringMatcher (STARTING, ENDING, or CONTAINING) in Query By Example (QBE). If an application actively wires externally-controlled input into a QBE probe, an attacker can supply wildcard characters to perform boolean-based blind data inference, allowing them to guess data within the queried entity.
Who does this affect?
You are affected if you are using a version that falls within the vulnerable range and it requires the application developer to explicitly configure and expose a QBE probe that accepts untrusted input.
Background info
spring-data-jdbc is vulnerable to Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic in versions 0.0.0 - 3.5.11 and 4.0.0 - 4.0.5.
