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
A vulnerability has been found in erupts erupt up to 1.13.3. Affected by this issue is the function geneEruptHqlOrderBy of the file erupt-data/erupt-jpa/src/main/java/xyz/erupt/jpa/dao/EruptJpaUtils.java. Such manipulation of the argument sort.field leads to sql injection hibernate. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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 · moderate confidence

SQL injection vulnerability in the geneEruptHqlOrderBy function of EruptJpaUtils.java. The sort.field parameter is not sanitized before being incorporated into Hibernate Query Language (HQL) ORDER BY clauses, allowing remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL code via crafted input.

MitigationImplement strict allowlist validation or parameterized query binding for sort.field input in the geneEruptHqlOrderBy function. Until official patch is released, restrict or disable the sorting functionality exposed through this endpoint.

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. Identify Erupt framework installation
    Search for EruptJpaUtils.java in your codebase or check Maven/Gradle dependencies for the erupt framework artifact (typically com.erupt or erupt:erupt-*)
    Affected if The Erupt framework is present in your environment
  2. Determine Erupt version
    Check your build configuration (pom.xml, build.gradle) or the jar manifest for the exact Erupt version number
    Affected if You cannot determine the version or are running a version that includes the geneEruptHqlOrderBy function
  3. Check if sorting functionality is exposed
    Review your application endpoints to determine if any API accepts a sort.field or sortField parameter, typically through REST controllers or data table components that use Erupt's sorting features
    Affected if Sorting parameters are accepted by your exposed endpoints
  4. Verify geneEruptHqlOrderBy is in use
    Search your deployed EruptJpaUtils.java or compiled classes for the geneEruptHqlOrderBy method and trace if it handles user-supplied sort.field input without sanitization
    Affected if The vulnerable function processes unsanitized sort.field input from requests
  5. Review input validation on sort parameters
    Examine any filters, interceptors, or validation logic that process the sort.field parameter before it reaches the HQL query builder in geneEruptHqlOrderBy
    Affected if No input validation or allowlist validation exists for the sort.field parameter

You are affected if you are running the Erupt framework with the vulnerable geneEruptHqlOrderBy function and the sorting feature that accepts sort.field input is enabled and reachable from your application endpoints.
