The vulnerability stems from how StringAgg handled the 'delimiter' parameter. The original implementation used string formatting to insert the delimiter directly into the SQL template ('%(delimiter)s'), making it vulnerable to SQL injection. The patch changed this by wrapping the delimiter in a Value() expression, forcing proper SQL parameterization. The commit diff clearly shows the vulnerable pattern in the template and the fix in the init method, aligning with the CVE description of delimiter-based SQL injection.
