The analysis of this vulnerability began with the detailed description provided, which pointed to a SQL injection vulnerability in the telemetry aggregation API of OneUptime. The root cause is the lack of input validation for user-controlled parameters that are used to construct a SQL query.
To pinpoint the exact vulnerable functions, I followed these steps:
- I identified the patched version from the vulnerability details (
10.0.23) and the repository name (OneUptime/oneuptime).
- Using the
get_repo_tags tool, I found the commit SHAs for the patched version (bbd6bdac1229598d880ec7b02219ae72af221206) and the last vulnerable version (fed52fecd9cc384bc8cbc03d9765e5b610201eca).
- I then used the
compare_two_commits tool to list all the commits between these two versions. This revealed the commit 02e2a247c3320ceb5e96dbbad5eb4d15d0d73d13 with the message 'fix(analytics): validate aggregation types and column names in aggregateBy method', which is clearly the security patch.
- I fetched the details of this commit using
get_commit_infos. The patch showed that validation logic was added to the AnalyticsDatabaseService.ts file.
- Based on the commit message and the context of the changes, the vulnerable method was identified as
aggregateBy within the AnalyticsDatabaseService class. This method was vulnerable because it did not validate its inputs before they were used in a query.
- The vulnerability description also explicitly mentioned the
Statement.append method as the function performing raw string concatenation, which is the mechanism that allows the injection to occur. The provided code snippet for this method serves as direct evidence.
Therefore, two primary functions are identified as vulnerable: AnalyticsDatabaseService.aggregateBy for its failure to validate input, and Statement.append for its unsafe handling of SQL query construction. An exploit would involve a call to AnalyticsDatabaseService.aggregateBy, which would in turn call Statement.append with malicious data.
