Summary

The Snowflake driver for Golang prior to version 1.6.19 has a command injection vulnerability via SSO browser URL authentication. An attacker can exploit a malicious resource to redirect users to a malicious URL, potentially leading to remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

This vulnerability poses a risk of remote code execution on users' local machines, which could lead to serious security breaches within the organization.

Recommendation

It is recommended to upgrade to version 1.6.19 and implement URL whitelisting along with common anti-phishing resources.

Original NVD description (English source)

gosnowflake is th Snowflake Golang driver. Prior to version 1.6.19, a command injection vulnerability exists in the Snowflake Golang driver via single sign-on (SSO) browser URL authentication. In order to exploit the potential for command injection, an attacker would need to be successful in (1) establishing a malicious resource and (2) redirecting users to utilize the resource. The attacker could set up a malicious, publicly accessible server which responds to the SSO URL with an attack payload. If the attacker then tricked a user into visiting the maliciously crafted connection URL, the user’s local machine would render the malicious payload, leading to a remote code execution. This attack scenario can be mitigated through URL whitelisting as well as common anti-phishing resources. A patch is available in version 1.6.19.
