CVE-2026-107375 jhipster CVE debrief

Who should care

Developers and administrators of JHipster-generated reactive applications should assess their exposure and take necessary actions to mitigate the vulnerability. They should verify JHipster versions, implement input validation and quoting for SQL queries, and monitor for suspicious database activity.

Why it matters

CVE-2026-107375 is a high-severity SQL injection vulnerability in JHipster-generated reactive applications. An authenticated low-privileged user can execute arbitrary SQL, leading to full C/I/A impact. Defenders should assess exposure, verify JHipster versions, and implement input validation and quoting for SQL queries.

• An authenticated low-privileged user can execute arbitrary SQL, read any table, modify or delete data, and drop tables.
• The vulnerability allows for full C/I/A impact.
• Defenders should verify JHipster versions and implement input validation and quoting for SQL queries.
• Monitoring for suspicious database activity is recommended.

Technical summary

The CVE-2026-107375 vulnerability is an SQL injection issue in JHipster-generated reactive applications. The vulnerability occurs in the paginated entity list endpoints, where the `sort` request parameter is taken verbatim from the user and concatenated into the SQL `ORDER BY` clause without quoting or validation. This allows an authenticated low-privileged user to execute arbitrary SQL, leading to full C/I/A impact. Defenders should assess exposure, verify JHipster versions, and implement input validation and quoting for SQL queries.
