Exploitation Conditions

Requires a valid authenticated WebVella ERP account at any privilege level and network access to the EQL query API endpoint (POST /api/v3/en_US/eql). The specific trigger is a crafted single-quoted text literal placed in a WHERE clause, which escapes EqlBuilder's unsanitized SQL string interpolation. No user interaction and no non-default configuration are needed because the EQL API is core product functionality; the primary limiting factor is the authentication requirement (PR:L), meaning this cannot be exploited by fully unauthenticated attackers.

Impact

This is a genuine but moderate-priority issue, not an overstated high-CVSS finding. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:L/VA:N, score 7.1) is internally consistent with the description: network-reachable, low-complexity SQL injection in the EQL query API that any authenticated low-privilege user can trigger without user interaction, yielding high confidentiality impact (reading unauthorized entities including user and role tables) but only low integrity and no availability impact. The key limiting signal is PR:L - exploitation requires a valid authenticated account, so this is not a pre-auth internet-wide threat and is better characterized as a privilege-escalation / unauthorized-data-access flaw usable by any legitimate or compromised low-privilege user. No EPSS score was provided in the input, and the vulnerability is NOT listed in CISA KEV; there is no evidence of active exploitation. A detailed public technical writeup (hackmd) and VulnCheck advisory exist with exact vulnerable source lines, which materially lowers the effort to develop a working exploit, but no weaponized public exploit code is confirmed in the provided data. Net: credible, easily exploitable post-authentication, but scoped by the authentication requirement and the niche footprint of the product.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with any authenticated WebVella ERP account (or a compromised low-privilege user) sends a POST request to /api/v3/en_US/eql containing a crafted single-quoted text literal in a WHERE clause. Because EqlBuilder performs unsanitized string interpolation, the attacker escapes the intended literal and injects arbitrary SQL, reading entities they should not access such as user and role tables. A detailed public technical writeup documents the exact vulnerable code path, so exploit development is low-effort even though no packaged public exploit is confirmed.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 16, 2026

Authenticated SQL injection in WebVella ERP through 1.8.8 allows any valid user account to read unauthorized entities, including user and role tables, by sending crafted single-quoted literals in WHERE clauses to the EQL query API at POST /api/v3/en_US/eql. The flaw is CWE-89 in EqlBuilder's unsanitized SQL string interpolation, and the CVSS vector confirms PR:L, so unauthenticated attackers cannot exploit it directly. No public exploit code was identified at time of analysis, and although CVSS 4.0 scores this 7.1, the independent assessment correctly frames it as a genuine but moderate-priority issue rather than an overstated high-CVSS finding.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis; because no exact fixed version is provided, treat WebVella ERP through 1.8.8 as affected and check the vendor repository, NuGet package page, and VulnCheck advisory for updated guidance before upgrading. Until a confirmed fix is available, restrict access to POST /api/v3/en_US/eql to trusted authenticated roles or trusted network ranges, understanding that this may break legitimate EQL-based reporting or API clients. If the EQL query API is not required, disabling or blocking that endpoint removes the attack surface but eliminates its intended functionality. Implement server-side parameterization or strict escaping/rejection of single quotes and other SQL metacharacters in EQL WHERE-clause text literals, add input validation for EQL queries, and review EqlBuilder's interpolation logic referenced in the GitHub links; these code-level mitigations may require application changes and could affect legitimate queries that rely on quoted literals. Apply least privilege to WebVella ERP accounts and monitor for anomalous EQL requests that attempt to access user, role, or other unauthorized entities. Consult the advisory references at https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/webvella-erp-through-1.8.8-sql-injection-via-eql-query-api and https://hackmd.io/@hieuPenguinnn/webvella-erp-eql-text-literal-sql-injection for further details.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This is a SQL injection vulnerability (CWE-89) in WebVella ERP's EQL query API. The EQL API accepts query expressions, and EqlBuilder constructs backend SQL using string interpolation instead of parameterized commands; when a text literal in a WHERE clause contains an unsanitized single quote, an authenticated user can escape the intended SQL string context and alter the resulting query. The vulnerable sink is identified in WebVella.Erp/Eql/EqlBuilder.Sql.cs lines 580-581, and the exposed API route is handled in WebVella.Erp.Web/Controllers/WebApiController.cs lines 64-74. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:webvella:webvella-erp:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* maps to the WebVella ERP package, and the NuGet reference points to version 1.8.8. The CVSS:4.0 vector includes PR:L and the independent CVSS:3.1 assessment also uses PR:L, confirming exploitation requires a valid authenticated account at any privilege level with network access to the EQL endpoint. Impact per the assessment is confidentiality high, integrity low, and availability none, meaning the primary risk is unauthorized read access to sensitive entities such as user and role tables, not code execution or complete system takeover.

DescriptionCVE.org

WebVella ERP through 1.8.8 contains an sql injection vulnerability that allows any authenticated user to inject SQL through WHERE-clause text literals in the EQL query API. Attackers can send crafted single-quoted literals to POST /api/v3/en_US/eql, escaping the unsanitized EqlBuilder SQL interpolation to read unauthorized entities, including user and role tables.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

A SQL injection flaw in WebVella ERP (through version 1.8.8) lets any employee with a valid login reach data they are not entitled to see, including the user and role tables that underpin access control across the platform. Because the weakness is reachable through an authenticated API endpoint, the practical risk is insider or compromised-account misuse rather than an external attacker breaking in, but successful abuse could expose the identity and permission map of the entire organization. Leadership should treat this as a moderate-priority integrity and data-exposure issue affecting any business unit running WebVella ERP, with no vendor fix currently published.

Business Impact: Medium
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Interim mitigations: restrict access to the EQL API endpoint to trusted networks and named service accounts (authenticated access required, so the attack surface is limited to holders of valid credentials); enforce least-privilege role assignments so ordinary users cannot meaningfully exploit the flaw against user and role tables; deploy WAF or reverse-proxy filtering to reject single-quote literals and SQL metacharacters in EQL request bodies; enable query logging and alerting for anomalous EQL activity; and rotate credentials for any account exhibiting suspicious query patterns.
