CVE-2026-104457: YesWiki before 4.6.7 SQL Injection via filtertags filterN parameter

Published Oct 2, 2026
·
Updated

YesWiki before 4.6.7 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in the Bazar filtertags action, which wraps unescaped filterN attribute tokens in quotes and concatenates them into a raw tags.value IN (...) clause. Unauthenticated attackers on default installs can save filtertags markup in a page with a trailing-backslash token that breaks quote parity under MySQL backslash escaping. This lets them inject a five-column UNION subquery to read arbitrary table data such as password hashes.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who is exposed to this issue?

Default YesWiki installations before 4.6.7 are exposed. Exploitation can be performed by an unauthenticated attacker who can save filtertags markup in a page.

2

What does an attacker need to do to exploit it?

The attacker needs to supply a trailing-backslash token in a filterN attribute of Bazar filtertags markup. Under MySQL backslash escaping, this breaks quote parity and permits SQL injection through the tags.value IN (...) clause.

3

What could an attacker access?

The described technique allows injection of a five-column UNION subquery to read arbitrary database table data. This can include sensitive data such as password hashes.
