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 · unedited
Improper neutralization of attacker-controlled content in Snowflake CLI versions prior to 3.19 allowed unintended SQL execution. By supplying crafted repository content, project configuration, manifest data, or specification input, an attacker could cause Snowflake CLI to execute unintended SQL in the context of the victim user's Snowflake session. Successful exploitation requires the victim to process attacker-controlled content through a vulnerable command path and is limited by the privileges assigned to that session. The fix is available in Snowflake CLI version 3.19. Users must manually upgrade.

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 confidence

Snowflake CLI versions before 3.19 fail to properly neutralize attacker-controlled input from repository content, project configuration, manifest data, or specification files. This allows injection of malicious SQL that executes within the victim's active Snowflake session, constrained only by the victim's assigned privileges.

MitigationManually upgrade Snowflake CLI to version 3.19 or later. Audit all workflows that process untrusted repository content or configuration files through the CLI.

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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check Snowflake CLI version
    Run `snowflake --version` or `snow --version` to display the installed CLI version
    Affected if The reported version is >= 1.2.2 and < 3.19.0, indicating the CLI is vulnerable to SQL injection via the affected command paths
  2. Identify project configuration files
    Locate snowflake.yml, snowflake.project, or similar project configuration files in your workspace directories using `find . -name 'snowflake*' -o -name '*.sfc' -o -name '*snow*'`
    Affected if Configuration files exist and were obtained from untrusted sources or contain suspicious SQL-like content in configuration fields
  3. Inspect manifest and specification input files
    Review any manifest.json, spec.yaml, or similar input files processed by the CLI for embedded SQL statements or unexpected command patterns
    Affected if Manifest or specification files contain SQL syntax embedded in fields that would be processed by vulnerable command paths
  4. Check repository content for injection vectors
    Examine any downloaded or cloned repository content that the CLI processes, looking for SQL statements embedded in file names, metadata, or configuration that the CLI might parse
    Affected if Repository content includes crafted SQL that could be executed in the Snowflake session context when processed by the CLI

A system is affected if Snowflake CLI version is 1.2.2 or higher but below 3.19.0 AND the CLI processes untrusted project configuration files, manifest data, repository content, or specification input that may contain malicious SQL statements.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 3.19.0 or later
Fixed in 3.19.0
Interim mitigation

Manually upgrade Snowflake CLI to version 3.19 or later. Audit all workflows that process untrusted repository content or configuration files through the CLI.

Recommended fix High confidence

Snowflake CLI 3.19.0

  1. Check current Snowflake CLI version using: snow --version or snowflake --version
  2. If version is >= 1.2.2 and < 3.19.0, upgrade to version 3.19.0
  3. Upgrade using your package manager (e.g., pip install --upgrade snowflake-cli-labs==3.19.0, or use brew/scoop depending on installation method)
  4. Verify the upgrade was successful by running snow --version and confirming it shows 3.19.0 or higher
