An SQL injection vulnerability in Pimcore admin-ui-classic-bundle through version 2.3 allows authenticated backend users to execute arbitrary SQL via the DataObject grid id column filter. The filter value is concatenated directly into the SQL WHERE clause without parameterization. An attacker with backend access can exfiltrate or modify all database contents.
AnalysisAI
SQL injection in Pimcore admin-ui-classic-bundle (all versions through 2.3) permits authenticated backend users to execute arbitrary SQL against the underlying database via the DataObject grid id column filter. The filter value is concatenated unsanitized directly into a SQL WHERE clause, bypassing parameterization entirely, enabling an attacker to exfiltrate or modify all database contents. No public exploit code or CISA KEV listing exists at time of analysis, but the CVSS score of 8.8 with full C/I/A:H impact and the straightforward CWE-89 pattern make this a meaningful risk for any unpatched Pimcore deployment.
Technical ContextAI
The vulnerability resides in Pimcore's admin-ui-classic-bundle, a PHP-based backend UI package for the open-source Pimcore data and content management platform. The affected component is identified by CPE cpe:2.3:a:pimcore:pimcore_admin-ui-classic-bundle:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covering all releases through version 2.3. The root cause is CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command): user-supplied input in the DataObject grid's id column filter is concatenated directly into a SQL WHERE clause without the use of prepared statements or parameterized queries. This classic unsanitized string interpolation pattern allows an attacker to alter the query's logical structure, enabling arbitrary SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE operations on the database backing the Pimcore installation. The DataObject grid is a core feature of the Pimcore admin interface, making the vulnerable code path broadly accessible to any authenticated backend user.
RemediationAI
The primary remediation is to upgrade Pimcore admin-ui-classic-bundle to a version beyond 2.3 once a patched release is published; no specific patched version number was confirmed in the available intelligence at time of analysis, so operators should monitor the upstream repository at https://github.com/pimcore/admin-ui-classic-bundle for a tagged release addressing this issue. As an immediate compensating control, restrict backend access to the Pimcore admin interface to the minimum necessary set of trusted users, enforce multi-factor authentication on all backend accounts to reduce credential-compromise risk, and - where architecturally feasible - place the admin UI behind a VPN or IP allowlist to prevent direct internet exposure, which eliminates network-level reachability for most attackers. Deploying a Web Application Firewall with SQL injection detection rules in front of the Pimcore admin interface provides an additional detective and preventive layer, though WAF bypass remains possible for skilled attackers. Database query logging with alerting on anomalous WHERE clause patterns can serve as a detective control until a vendor patch is applied.
