CVE-2024-50631
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedImproper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in the system syncing daemon in Synology Drive Server before 3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085 and 3.5.1-26102 allows remote attackers to inject SQL commands, limited to write operations, via unspecified vectors.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceSQL injection vulnerability in Synology Drive Server's system syncing daemon allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands, limited to write operations (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE), due to improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. The attack vector is via unspecified network vectors.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check Synology Drive Server version via web interfaceLog into Synology DSM, open Package Center, find Synology Drive Server, and view the version number in the package detailsAffected if The displayed version is below 3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085, or 3.5.1-26102 (whichever threshold applies to your installed branch)
-
Check Synology Drive Server version via command lineSSH into the Synology NAS and run: cat /var/packages/SynologyDrive/INFOAffected if The version shown is below any of the following: 3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085, or 3.5.1-26102
-
Confirm the specific version string formatExamine the full version string from the INFO file, noting both the major.minor.patch format and the build number (e.g., 3.5.0-26085)Affected if The build number portion is lower than 12699 (for 3.0.x), 23280 (for 3.2.x), 26085 (for 3.5.0), or 26102 (for 3.5.1)
You are affected if your installed Synology Drive Server version is lower than any of the fixed versions (3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085, or 3.5.1-26102) in your release branch.

Upgrade Synology Drive Server to version 3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085, 3.5.1-26102 or later. As an additional defense-in-depth measure, restrict network access to the Synology management interfaces and ensure the system is not directly exposed to untrusted networks.
Upgrade to Synology Drive Server 3.0.4-12699, 3.2.1-23280, 3.5.0-26085, or 3.5.1-26102 (recommended)
- 1. Identify the current version of Synology Drive Server installed on your system via Package Center or the DSM dashboard
- 2. Determine which version branch you are running (3.0.x, 3.2.x, or 3.5.x) to select the appropriate upgrade path
- 3. In Package Center, check for available updates for Synology Drive Server
- 4. If automatic updates are not available, manually download the appropriate package from Synology's download center for your specific DSM version
- 5. Stop any running services using Synology Drive Server if prompted during the upgrade process
- 6. Apply the update to upgrade Drive Server to version 3.0.4-12699 (or higher in 3.0.x), 3.2.1-23280 (or higher in 3.2.x), 3.5.0-26085 (or higher in 3.5.x), or preferably 3.5.1-26102
- 7. After upgrade completes, verify the new version is installed via Package Center
- 8. Confirm Synology Drive Server services are running properly and accessible
