Authenticated service interruption via wildcard token search
Published Feb 24, 2026 · Updated Feb 24, 2026
SQL LIKE wildcard injection in New API before 0.10.8-alpha.10 allows remote authenticated users to interrupt service through token search. The SearchUserTokens path in model/token.go embeds unescaped keyword and token values between percent signs in parameterized LIKE patterns, so attacker-supplied % and _ expand the result set. A valid low-privilege session and a token-heavy account are required; concurrent requests can saturate database CPU, exhaust application memory, and block legitimate requests.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
