Unauthenticated data exfiltration via Ransack query injection
Published Jan 10, 2023 · Updated Mar 10, 2025
Ransack query injection in OpenSUSE Travel Support Program allows remote attackers to read bank details and password hashes. Default Ransack association traversal accepts *_start, *_end, and *_cont predicates on related database fields and exposes a JSON match oracle. Unauthenticated network access is sufficient, and repeated character guesses disclose sensitive strings without changing data.
