CVE-2026-29080

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

A SQL injection vulnerability in the `FilterEngine.create_sqla_query()` method allows authenticated Rucio users to execute arbitrary SQL against the backend database through the DID search endpoint. In Oracle deployments, attacker-controlled filter keys and values are interpolated directly into `sqlalchemy.text()`, bypassing parameterization.

Risk Assessment

This vulnerability can lead to full database compromise, including the extraction of authentication tokens, password hashes, and all managed data identifiers. Organizations should be aware of the risk associated with unauthorized access to sensitive information.

Recommendation

It is recommended to upgrade to Rucio versions 35.8.5, 38.5.5, 39.4.2, or 40.1.1 to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, appropriate safeguards should be implemented to avoid interpolating user-controlled data in SQL queries.

Original NVD description (English source)

A SQL injection vulnerability in `FilterEngine.create_sqla_query()` allows any authenticated Rucio user to execute arbitrary SQL against the backend database through the DID search endpoint (`GET /dids/<scope>/dids/search`). On Oracle deployments attacker-controlled filter keys and values are interpolated directly into `sqlalchemy.text()` via Python `.format()`, completely bypassing parameterization. This enables full database compromise including extraction of authentication tokens, password hashes, and all managed data identifiers. This affects versions 1.27.0 and later before 35.8.5, 38.5.5, 39.4.2, and 40.1.1. The vulnerability exists in `lib/rucio/core/did_meta_plugins/filter_engine.py` within the `create_sqla_query()` method. When the database dialect is Oracle, filter expressions for JSON metadata columns are constructed using `text()` with Python string formatting. Both `key` and `value` are attacker-controlled strings derived from HTTP query parameters. The `text()` function
