How to Fix CVE-2019-10763

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Pimcore/pimcore dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

pimcore/pimcore fixed: 6.3.0
Upgrade pimcore/pimcore to 6.3.0
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 pimcore/pimcore

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2019-10763, inspect your project dependencies for Pimcore/pimcore:

inspect dependencies for pimcore/pimcore

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Pimcore/pimcore in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 6.3.0), 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 Pimcore/pimcore, 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

pimcore/pimcore before 6.3.0 is vulnerable to SQL Injection. An attacker with limited privileges (classes permission) can achieve a SQL injection that can lead in data leakage. The vulnerability can be exploited via 'id', 'storeId', 'pageSize' and 'tables' parameters, using a payload for trigger a time based or error based sql injection.
