GHSA-VQFX-GJ96-3W95

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-02-23 16:58 – Updated: 2023-02-23 16:58
VLAI
Summary
Unsafe fall-through in getWhereConditions
Details

Impact

Providing an invalid value to the where option of a query caused Sequelize to ignore that option instead of throwing an error.

A finder call like the following did not throw an error:

User.findAll({
  where: new Date(),
});

As this option is typically used with plain javascript objects, be aware that this only happens at the top level of this option.

Patches

This issue has been patched in sequelize@6.28.1 & @sequelize/core@7.0.0.alpha-20
