CVE-2023-28108

SQL injection via untyped UUID DAO queries

Published Mar 16, 2023 · Updated Feb 25, 2025

SQL injection in Pimcore before 10.5.19 allows local users with high privileges to read or alter database data through crafted UUID input. The UUID DAO getByUuid method concatenates its argument into a quoted SQL string, while exists binds the value without enforcing a string type; the patch gives both methods typed parameters. Reachability requires application code to pass unvalidated input to either method, and the published impact excludes service interruption.
