CVE-2022-27479Network attack vector

SQL injection via chart data requests

Published Apr 13, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024

SQL injection in Apache Superset before 1.4.2 allows remote attackers to execute SQL through crafted chart data requests. Apache's advisory and public reference set identify the chart data API but do not disclose the vulnerable field or query-construction operation that fails to neutralize input. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful injection can read or modify connected database data and interrupt service.
