Summary

SQL Injection vulnerability in TypeORM before 0.3.26 via crafted request to repository.save or repository.update due to the sqlstring call using stringifyObjects default to false.

Details

Vulnerable Code:

Intended Payload (non-malicious):

username=myusername&city=Riga&name=Javad

OR

{username:\"myusername\",phone:12345,name:\"Javad\"}

SQL query produced:

Malicious Payload:

username=myusername&city[name]=Riga&city[role]=admin

OR

{username:\"myusername\",city:{name:\"Javad\",role:\"admin\"}}

SQL query produced with Injected Column:

Above query is valid as city = name = Javad is a boolean expression resulting in city = 1 (false). “role” column is injected and updated.

Underlying issue was due to TypeORM using mysql2 without specifying a value for the stringifyObjects option. In both mysql and mysql2 this option defaults to false. This option is then passed into SQLString library as false. This results in sqlstring parsing objects in a strange way using objectToValues.
