CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The MongoDB Connector for BI is vulnerable due to improper escaping of backslash characters in the JSON schema validator's description, which can lead to SQL injection risks. A user with permissions to modify the schema validator can manipulate the output of SHOW CREATE statements, potentially executing unauthorized SQL commands with the privileges of the session that replays the generated statement. Organizations using MongoDB with BI connectors should prioritize addressing this vulnerability to mitigate the risk of SQL injection attacks.

Original NVD Description

In MongoDB Connector for BI, the description text of a collection's JSON schema validator is incorporated into the comment text of the DDL returned by SHOW CREATE statements without complete escaping of backslash characters. A user with permission to modify a collection's schema validator, in deployments configured to build their SQL schema from those validators, can cause additional SQL text to be embedded in that generated output. If an operator or automated tool later replays that generated statement against a SQL server, the additional text is executed with the privileges of that session.
