CVE-2026-123990DataEase SQL injection
CVE-2026-123990 is a SQL injection in DataEase, rated medium (5.5 on CVSS 4.0).
Why this priority: Medium severity, with no exploitation signal.
Published · Updated · NVD status: Deferred
What it is
Input is pasted into a database query, so an attacker can rewrite the query to read or change data. Input is passed to another component as instructions rather than data.
How it is reached
An attacker can exploit it over the network, without an account, and nobody has to click anything.
What an attacker gains
The direct impact is limited: partial access to data or a partial outage. In practice, this kind of flaw lets an attacker read or change records in the data store behind the application.
Is it being exploited?
There is no public report of exploitation yet. It can be exploited automatically, at scale.
What to do
- Upgrade DataEase to 3.2.0 or later.
- Until it is patched, keep it off the internet or behind a VPN, allowlist or authenticating proxy.
Description from NVD
A security vulnerability has been detected in DataEase up to 2.10.27/3.1.0. Affected is the function ExtWhere2Str.extWhere2sqlOjb of the file engine/trans/ExtWhere2Str.java of the component Chart Data Handler. Such manipulation of the argument operator leads to sql injection. The attack may be performed from remote. The exploit has been disclosed publicly and may be used. Upgrading to version 3.2.0 is able to address this issue. Upgrading the affected component is advised. The vendor confirms: "The fix validates the complete compound operator and uses fixed AND / OR keywords instead of concatenating user-controlled logic into SQL."
What this means for your architecture.
A CVE names a product. Whether it matters depends on where that product sits in your systems: what reaches it, which trust boundary it guards and what it can reach once compromised. Veriom maps your components, their relationships and your trust boundaries from your code, cloud and delivery evidence, so you can see where a component like this sits. The radar itself does not look at your systems.
Components it touches
- Services that build database or directory queries. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.
- Databases. The flaw sits between the application and its data store.
- Application servers and the hosts they run on. The flaw sits between untrusted input and code or command execution.
- Template engines. The flaw sits between untrusted input and code or command execution.
Trust boundaries in play
- Internet-facing entry points. No account is needed. Any instance reachable from outside your perimeter, through a load balancer, gateway, VPN or exposed admin port, is in scope.
- Between the application and its data store. An attacker who crosses it can read or change records in the data store behind the application.
- Between untrusted input and code or command execution. An attacker who crosses it can run commands or code with the privileges of the affected service.
Questions to answer about your own systems
- Where does DataEase run in your systems, and at which version?
- Which of those instances can be reached from the internet or partner networks?
- What can it reach once compromised: which data stores, secrets and services?
