Technical details

The vulnerability is a classic SQL injection flaw in the admin-ui-classic-bundle's DataObject grid filtering mechanism. The id column filter value is concatenated directly into SQL WHERE clauses without parameterization or escaping. An authenticated backend user can craft a malicious filter value to break out of the SQL context and execute arbitrary SQL commands. The attack requires valid backend authentication credentials but is otherwise unrestricted. This vulnerability affects admin-ui-classic-bundle through version 2.3; a patch or version upgrade is required to remediate.
