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
Jellystat is a free and open source Statistics App for Jellyfin. Prior to version 1.1.10, multiple API endpoints in Jellystat build SQL queries by interpolating unsanitized request-body fields directly into raw SQL strings. An authenticated user can inject arbitrary SQL via `POST /api/getUserDetails` and `POST /api/getLibrary`, enabling full read of any table in the database - including `app_config`, which stores the Jellystat admin credentials, the Jellyfin API key, and the Jellyfin host URL. Because the vulnerable call site dispatches via `node-postgres`'s simple query protocol (no parameter array is passed), stacked queries are allowed, which escalates the injection from data disclosure to arbitrary command execution on the PostgreSQL host via `COPY ... TO PROGRAM`. Under the role shipped by the project's `docker-compose.yml` (a PostgreSQL superuser), no additional privileges are required to reach the RCE primitive. Version 1.1.10 contains a fix.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-89

User input is woven into a database query, letting an attacker rewrite the query's logic. From there they can read, alter, or destroy data — frequently the entire database. The reliable fix is parameterised queries (prepared statements), so input is always treated as data and never as SQL.

Recommended fix High confidence

Jellystat version 1.1.10

  1. Backup your current Jellystat installation and database before upgrading
  2. Upgrade Jellystat to version 1.1.10 or later
  3. After upgrading, verify the application runs correctly and test the previously vulnerable endpoints (/api/getUserDetails and /api/getLibrary) to confirm the SQL injection is remediated
  4. Review database access permissions - ensure the PostgreSQL role used by Jellystat is not a superuser if possible, as the current configuration allows RCE via COPY TO PROGRAM
  5. Rotate any exposed credentials (Jellystat admin, Jellyfin API key) that may have been compromised
