Title
@vendure/core has a SQL Injection vulnerability
Summary
Vendure is an open-source headless commerce platform. Starting in version 1.7.4 and prior to versions 2.3.4, 3.5.7, and 3.6.2, an unauthenticated SQL injection vulnerability exists in the Vendure Shop API. A user-controlled query string parameter is interpolated directly into a raw SQL expression without parameterization or validation, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL against the database. This affects all supported database backends (PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, SQLite). The Admin API is also affected, though exploitation there requires authentication. Versions 2.3.4, 3.5.7, and 3.6.2 contain a patch. For those who are unable to upgrade immediately, Vendure has made a hotfix available that uses `RequestContextService.getLanguageCode` to validate the `languageCode` input at the boundary. This blocks injection payloads before they can reach any query. The hotfix replaces the existing `getLanguageCode` method in `packages/core/src/service/helpers/request-context/request-context.service.ts`. Invalid values are silently dropped and the channel's default language is used instead. The patched versions additionally convert the vulnerable SQL interpolation to a parameterized query as defense in depth.

A partir de la versi\u00f3n 1.7.4 y anterior a las versiones 2.3.4, 3.5.7 y 3.6.2, existe una vulnerabilidad de inyecci\u00f3n SQL no autenticada en la API de la tienda Vendure. Un par\u00e1metro de cadena de consulta controlado por el usuario se interpola directamente en una expresi\u00f3n SQL sin procesar sin parametrizaci\u00f3n ni validaci\u00f3n, permitiendo a un atacante ejecutar SQL arbitrario contra la base de datos. Esto afecta a todos los backends de base de datos compatibles (PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, SQLite). La API de administraci\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n se ve afectada, aunque la explotaci\u00f3n all\u00ed requiere autenticaci\u00f3n. Las versiones 2.3.4, 3.5.7 y 3.6.2 contienen un parche. Para aquellos que no pueden actualizar de inmediato, Vendure ha puesto a disposici\u00f3n un hotfix que utiliza \u2019RequestContextService.getLanguageCode\u2019 para validar la entrada \u2019languageCode\u2019 en el l\u00edmite. Esto bloquea las cargas \u00fatiles de inyecci\u00f3n antes de que puedan llegar a cualquier consulta. El hotfix reemplaza el m\u00e9todo existente \u2019getLanguageCode\u2019 en \u2019packages/core/src/service/helpers/request-context/request-context.service.ts\u2019. Los valores no v\u00e1lidos se descartan silenciosamente y se utiliza el idioma predeterminado del canal en su lugar. Las versiones parcheadas adicionalmente convierten la interpolaci\u00f3n SQL vulnerable en una consulta parametrizada como defensa en profundidad."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.
Experimental. This forecast is provided for visualization only and may change without notice. Do not use it for operational decisions.
Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
