github.com/elgs/gosqljson fixed: 0.0.0-20220916234230-750f26ee23c7 
Upgrade github.com/elgs/gosqljson to 0.0.0-20220916234230-750f26ee23c7
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for github.com/elgs/gosqljson

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2014-125064, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/elgs/gosqljson:

inspect dependencies for github.com/elgs/gosqljson

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/elgs/gosqljson in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.0.0-20220916234230-750f26ee23c7), 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 Github.com/elgs/gosqljson, 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.

Source Advisory Statement

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in elgs gosqljson. This issue affects the function `QueryDbToArray/QueryDbToMap/ExecDb` of the file `gosqljson.go`.
