How to Fix CVE-2026-46670
To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected YesWiki dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.
Upgrade yeswiki/yeswiki to 4.6.4
Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:
inspect dependencies for yeswiki/yeswiki
How to Check if You Are Affected
To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2026-46670, inspect your project dependencies for YesWiki:
inspect dependencies for yeswiki/yeswiki
Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of YesWiki in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 4.6.4), your application is affected.
Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.
Technical Details
Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection'), where the product constructs all or part of an sql command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended sql command when it is sent to a downstream component. without sufficient removal or quoting of sql syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated sql query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as sql instead of ordinary user data. In YesWiki, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

"details" : "### Summary\n\nAn unauthenticated SQL injection in the Bazar form-import path (`FormManager::create()`) allows any unauthenticated visitor of a default YesWiki install to inject arbitrary SQL into an `INSERT` statement and read the full database, including `yeswiki_users.password` hashes. Present in 4.6.1 / 4.6.2 / current `doryphore-dev`; analyzed against upstream commit `1f485c049db030b94c047ec219e63534ac81142e`.\n\n### Details\n\nSink is at `FormManager::create()` (function at L232), unquoted concatenation of `bn_id_nature` into the `INSERT VALUES` list at https://github.com/YesWiki/yeswiki/blob/1f485c049db030b94c047ec219e63534ac81142e/tools/bazar/services/FormManager.php#L258 \n\nReachability is unauthenticated.\n\n\n### PoC\n\n1. Clone the repo (test was done on 1f485c049db030b94c047ec219e63534ac81142e)\n2. Bring up the service using docker: `cd docker && docker compose build && docker compose up`\n3. Go to `https://localhost:8085`\n4. Go through the installation\n5. Run the POC: \n[yeswiki_sqli_poc.py](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/27578633/yeswiki_sqli_poc.py)\n\n<img width=\"672\" height=\"54\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fc9a9adf-7d09-442b-bcc1-8edf1bdcf0a1\" />\n\n\n### Impact\nSql injection.\nAn attacker can dump the whole db, including usernames, emails, and hashed passwords.\n\n\n### More details\nSample http request (copied from burp):\n```\nPOST /?BazaR&vue=formulaire HTTP/1.1\nAccept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, br\nContent-Length: 353\nHost: localhost:8085\nUser-Agent: Python-urllib/3.13\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\nConnection: keep-alive\n\nimported-form%5B7791000%2BASCII%28SUBSTRING%28%28SELECT%2F%2A%2A%2FHEX%28CONCAT%28email%2C0x3a%2Cpassword%29%29%2F%2A%2A%2FFROM%2F%2A%2A%2Fyeswiki_users%2F%2A%2A%2FLIMIT%2F%2A%2A%2F1%29%2C1%2C1%29%29%5D=%7B%22bn_label_nature%22%3A+%22zz_poc_7790000_1%22%2C+%22bn_template%22%3A+%22%22%2C+%22bn_description%22%3A+%22%22%2C+%22bn_condition%22%3A+%22%22%7D\n```\n\n#### POC internals:\nThe PoC uses an expression like:\n`7330000 + ASCII(SUBSTRING((SELECT HEX(VERSION())), 1, 1))`\n\n**Breakdown**\n`SELECT HEX(VERSION())` or whatever the statement is (the poc file dumps 1 username and password)\nThis gets the database version and hex-encodes it.\nExample:\n```\nVERSION() = 9.7.0\nHEX(VERSION()) = 392E372E30\n```\nThen:\n`SUBSTRING((SELECT HEX(VERSION())), 1, 1)` takes one character from that hex string. \nFor position 1, this returns `3`, then: `ASCII(...)` converts that character to its ASCII code: `ASCII('3') = 51`\nThen:\n`7330000 + 51` produces `7330051`\nSo the full vulnerable insert becomes roughly:\n```\nINSERT INTO yeswiki_nature (..., bn_id_nature, ...)\nVALUES (7330000 + ASCII(SUBSTRING((SELECT HEX(VERSION())), 1, 1)), \"fr-FR\", ...);\n```\nMySQL evaluates the expression before storing it, so the inserted row has: `bn_id_nature = 7330051`\nThe PoC reads that ID from `/?api/forms`, subtracts `7330000`, gets `51`, converts `51` back to '3', and repeats for the next character.",
