How to Fix CVE-2018-25088

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

postgraas-server fixed: 2.0.0 
pip install postgraas-server>=2.0.0
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

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

pip show postgraas-server

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2018-25088, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show postgraas-server

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Postgraas server in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 2.0.0), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show postgraas-server command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

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 Postgraas server, 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, was found in Blue Yonder postgraas_server up to 2.0.0b2. Affected is the function `_create_pg_connection/create_postgres_db` of the file `postgraas_server/backends/postgres_cluster/postgres_cluster_driver.py` of the component PostgreSQL Backend Handler. The manipulation leads to sql injection. Upgrading to version 2.0.0 is able to address this issue. The patch is identified as 7cd8d016edc74a78af0d81c948bfafbcc93c937c. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. VDB-234246 is the identifier assigned to this vulnerability.
