CVE-2026-19496
Description
A flaw was found in sources-api-go. An authenticated remote user can exploit a SQL injection vulnerability by injecting arbitrary SQL expressions through query parameter filtering. This can lead to unauthorized information disclosure of internal database fields, arbitrary PostgreSQL function execution, and denial of service.
Statement
This Important SQL injection vulnerability in sources-api-go allows an authenticated console.redhat.com user to execute arbitrary SQL expressions. This could lead to sensitive information disclosure, arbitrary PostgreSQL function execution, and denial of service, making it a significant risk for Red Hat cloud services. The flaw stems from unsanitized user input being directly interpolated into database queries.
Mitigation
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Confidentiality,Integrity,Availability
Technical Impact: Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
Adversaries could execute system commands, typically by changing the SQL statement to redirect output to a file that can then be executed.
Confidentiality
Technical Impact: Read Application Data
Since SQL databases generally hold sensitive data, loss of confidentiality is a frequent problem with SQL injection vulnerabilities.
Authentication
Technical Impact: Gain Privileges or Assume Identity; Bypass Protection Mechanism
If poor SQL commands are used to check user names and passwords or perform other kinds of authentication, it may be possible to connect to the product as another user with no previous knowledge of the password.
Access Control
Technical Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism
If authorization information is held in a SQL database, it may be possible to change this information through the successful exploitation of a SQL injection vulnerability.
Integrity
Technical Impact: Modify Application Data
Just as it may be possible to read sensitive information, it is also possible to modify or even delete this information with a SQL injection attack.
