Technical details
This is a SQL injection vulnerability in the DDL generation layer of MongoDB Connector for BI. MongoDB object names (collections, fields, indexes) are embedded into quoted identifiers in SHOW CREATE statements without proper escaping of the identifier delimiter. An attacker with write permissions to a MongoDB collection can craft a name containing quotes or other delimiter characters that closes the quoted identifier early, allowing additional SQL syntax to be injected into the generated statement. The vulnerability is triggered when an operator or automated tool replays the generated DDL against a SQL server; the injected SQL executes with the session's privileges. No authentication is required beyond existing MongoDB write access.
