CVE-2026-22687
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 · uneditedWeKnora is an LLM-powered framework designed for deep document understanding and semantic retrieval. Prior to version 0.2.5, after WeKnora enables the Agent service, it allows users to call the database query tool. Due to insufficient backend validation, an attacker can use prompt‑based bypass techniques to evade query restrictions and obtain sensitive information from the target server and database. This issue has been patched in version 0.2.5.
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 confidenceWeKnora versions before 0.2.5 contain a critical prompt injection vulnerability in the Agent service's database query tool. Attackers can bypass insufficient backend validation using malicious prompts to execute unauthorized database queries and exfiltrate sensitive server and database information.

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 installed Weknora versionLocate the Weknora installation directory and check the version metadata file or use the version command if available in the CLI. Common locations include the application root directory or package manager records.Affected if The installed version is lower than 0.2.5 (e.g., 0.2.4, 0.2.3, etc.)
-
Confirm Agent service is enabledInspect the Weknora configuration files or service settings to verify that the Agent service component is active and accessible. Look for Agent-related configuration entries in the main config file or service registry.Affected if The Agent service is enabled and running, and the version is below 0.2.5
-
Verify database query tool functionality is accessibleCheck if the Agent service's database query tool endpoint or interface is exposed and operational. This may be visible in the API documentation, service configuration, or through the administration panel.Affected if The database query tool functionality is available in the Agent service and the version is below 0.2.5
-
Review backend validation configurationExamine the Agent service configuration files for any validation-related settings controlling prompt processing for database queries. Look for entries related to input sanitization or query restriction.Affected if Backend validation settings are present but the version is below 0.2.5, indicating the vulnerable configuration may exist
You are affected if Weknora version is below 0.2.5 AND the Agent service with its database query tool is enabled and accessible in your environment.

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.
dbcve · scoped0.2.5
Upgrade WeKnora to version 0.2.5 or later to apply the patch that addresses the insufficient backend validation in the Agent service database query functionality.
0.2.5
- Upgrade WeKnora to version 0.2.5 or later by pulling the latest release from the GitHub repository
- Verify the installation by checking the version number matches or exceeds 0.2.5
- After upgrading, test that the Agent service database query tool properly validates and restricts user input
- Confirm that prompt-based bypass techniques no longer allow unauthorized database access
