CVE-2026-10731
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 · uneditedSQL injection in the ‘two_steps_auth_code’ parameter processed by the ‘twoStepsAuthVerification’ function within the ‘/user-login’ endpoint. The two-factor authentication (2FA) functionality can be accessed without prior authentication, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary SQL queries on the backend database. A successful exploit could lead to database enumeration, the unauthorised creation of privileged users, the modification or deletion of critical information, and denial-of-service conditions.
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 the two-factor authentication verification function (twoStepsAuthVerification) at the /user-login endpoint allows unauthenticated attackers to inject malicious SQL through the two_steps_auth_code parameter, enabling arbitrary database queries due to the 2FA functionality being accessible without prior authentication.

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.
-
Identify if the /user-login endpoint existsScan your application for the /user-login endpoint and verify if it accepts a 'two_steps_auth_code' parameter in the request (POST or GET).Affected if The endpoint exists and accepts the two_steps_auth_code parameter without validation.
-
Determine if 2FA verification allows unauthenticated accessAttempt to access the two-factor authentication verification flow directly without completing prior authentication steps (such as username/password).Affected if The 2FA verification can be reached and the twoStepsAuthVerification function executes without requiring prior successful authentication.
-
Inspect the twoStepsAuthVerification function codeLocate the twoStepsAuthVerification function in your codebase and review how the 'two_steps_auth_code' parameter is handled before being used in database queries.Affected if The function uses the two_steps_auth_code parameter directly in SQL queries without parameterized queries (prepared statements) or input sanitization.
-
Check for SQL injection vulnerabilities in the parameter handlingReview all database queries involving the two_steps_auth_code parameter and verify if string concatenation or unsafe interpolation is used instead of bound parameters.Affected if SQL queries concatenate or interpolate the two_steps_auth_code parameter directly into the query string.
-
Compare your deployed version against latest releaseIdentify your application's version from the deployment artifacts or application metadata, then compare it to the latest version that includes the security fix for this CVE.Affected if Your deployed version predates the patch for CVE-2026-10731.
You are affected if the /user-login endpoint exposes two-step authentication that can be accessed without prior authentication and the two_steps_auth_code parameter is used in SQL queries without parameterized statements.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataFix by implementing proper authentication checks before allowing 2FA verification access and replacing dynamic SQL construction with parameterized queries/prepared statements for the two_steps_auth_code parameter.
