Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor and SQL Injection in Spring Data JPA

Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 14, 2019 to the GitHub Advisory Database • Updated Feb 1, 2023

Package

maven org.springframework.data:spring-data-jpa (Maven)

Affected versions

< 1.11.20
>= 2.0.0, < 2.0.14
>= 2.1.0, < 2.1.6

Patched versions

1.11.20
2.0.14
2.1.6

Description

This affects Spring Data JPA in versions up to and including 2.1.5, 2.0.13 and 1.11.19. Derived queries using any of the predicates ?startingWith?, ?endingWith? or ?containing? could return more results than anticipated when a maliciously crafted query parameter value is supplied. Also, LIKE expressions in manually defined queries could return unexpected results if the parameter values bound did not have escaped reserved characters properly.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
