Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')

CVE-2024-8251

Medium
5.3/10

Summary

A vulnerability in mintplex-labs/anything-llm prior to version 1.2.2 allows for Prisma injection. The issue exists in the API endpoint "/embed/:embedId/stream-chat" where user-provided JSON is directly taken to the Prisma library's where clause. An attacker can exploit this by providing a specially crafted JSON object, such as {"sessionId":{"not":"a"}}, causing Prisma to return all data from the table. This can lead to unauthorized access to all user queries in embedded chat mode.

CWE-89 - SQL Injection

Structured Query Language (SQL) injection attacks are one of the most common types of vulnerabilities. They exploit weaknesses in vulnerable applications to gain unauthorized access to backend databases. This often occurs when an attacker enters unexpected SQL syntax in an input field. The resulting SQL statement behaves in the background in an unintended manner, which allows the possibility of unauthorized data retrieval, data modification, execution of database administration operations, and execution of commands on the operating system.
