Security company SonicWall addressed a critical SQL injection (SQLi) vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2022-22280 (CVSS score 9.4), in Analytics On-Prem and Global Management System (GMS) products.
“Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command leading to Unauthenticated SQL Injection vulnerability, impacting SonicWall GMS and Analytics On-Prem.” reads the advisory published by the company.
SonicWall researchers pointed out that the likelihood of exploitation may be significantly reduced by incorporating Web Application Firewall that could detect and block SQLi attacks.
The vulnerability was discovered by H4lo & Catalpa of Hatlab DBappSecurity.
Below is the list of fixed software:
| Product | Fixed Version |
| GMS | 9.3.1-SP2-Hotfix-2 |
| Analytics | 2.5.0.3-2520-Hotfix1 |
Organizations are recommended to upgrade to the above version as soon as possible.
“There is no workaround available for this vulnerability,” SonicWall said. “However, the likelihood of exploitation may be significantly reduced by incorporating a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to block SQLi attempts.”
