Technical details
The vulnerability is a SQL injection issue in the MongoDB Connector for BI's DDL generation logic. When a collection's JSON schema validator description is incorporated into SHOW CREATE statement output, backslash characters are not completely escaped in the resulting SQL comment text. An attacker with permission to modify a collection's schema validator can craft a malicious description containing SQL syntax that breaks out of the comment context when the DDL is replayed. The attack requires both schema modification privileges and a subsequent action (manual or automated replay of the DDL) against a SQL server. The injected SQL executes in the context of the replaying session's privileges.
