Summary

The temporalio/sqlparser library accepts SQL containing deeply nested unary expressions and returns a correspondingly deep abstract syntax tree without enforcing a nesting limit. Its String and Walk operations recursively traverse that tree, which can cause a runtime-fatal Go stack overflow that terminates the process. Temporal Server passes caller-controlled query input through the affected parser in archival, visibility, and worker-query paths.

Risk Assessment

An authenticated caller with namespace read permission can terminate the receiving Frontend or Matching process, causing a denial of service. Repeated requests can sustain the DoS; the issue affects availability only.

Recommendation

Update temporalio/sqlparser and Temporal Server to a version containing the nesting-depth fix. Consider restricting namespace read permissions and monitoring for unusual queries.

Other vulnerabilities in temporalio/sqlparser

Original NVD description (English source)

temporalio/sqlparser accepts SQL containing deeply nested unary expressions and can return a correspondingly deep abstract syntax tree without enforcing an applicable nesting limit. The library's String and Walk operations recursively traverse that tree. An application that parses attacker-controlled SQL and later formats or walks the returned tree can encounter a runtime-fatal Go stack overflow that terminates the process; Go panic recovery cannot contain this condition. Temporal Server passes caller-controlled query input through the affected parser in archival, visibility, and worker-query paths. In affected validation paths, the Server recursively formats an invalid expression while constructing an error. In a supported authenticated deployment, a caller with namespace read permission can terminate the receiving Frontend or Matching process. The dynamically confirmed ListWorkers route additionally requires at least one retained worker heartbeat. Repeated requests can sustain a denial of service. The issue affects availability only; no confidentiality or integrity impact was identified.
