CVE-2026-84859 Details
Description
ScadaLTS 2.8.1-release-candidate build 0 is affected by an Authenticated Blind SQL Injection The /api/events/search endpoint accepts a JSON body containing a sortBy array. The values in this array are concatenated directly into the SQL ORDER BY clause without any sanitization or parameterization. This allows authenticated users with the ROLE_USER role to perform time-based and boolean-based blind SQL injection to extract arbitrary data from the database, including password hashes of all users. The endpoint is accessible to any authenticated user with ROLE_USER, ROLE_ADMIN, or ROLE_PUBLIC via POST /api/events/search as defined in spring-security.xml.
A blind SQL injection vulnerability has been identified in ScadaLTS version 2.8.1-release-candidate build 0. The issue resides in the /api/events/search endpoint, which accepts a JSON body with a sortBy array. The values from this array are directly concatenated into the SQL ORDER BY clause without proper sanitization or parameterization. This flaw allows authenticated users with the ROLE_USER role to execute time-based and boolean-based blind SQL injection, enabling them to extract arbitrary data from the database, including password hashes of all users. The vulnerability is accessible to any authenticated user with ROLE_USER, ROLE_ADMIN, or ROLE_PUBLIC via POST /api/events/search, as defined in spring-security.xml. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacking user must have at least one visible event in the userEvents table, a common scenario for SCADA operators with data-point or data-source event subscriptions configured.
