SQL Injection in Apache InLong
CVE-2026-63038 is an SQL injection vulnerability in Apache InLong affecting versions 2.0.0 through before 2.4.0. The flaw is caused by improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands, reportedly due to string concatenation in SQL handling. An attacker can inject arbitrary SQL code through the dbName, tableName, schemaName, and username parameters. Successful exploitation can alter the logic of backend database queries and expose affected InLong deployments to unauthorized database operations.
What it means and what to do now: patch path, interim mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.
What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.
Successful exploitation allows arbitrary SQL code injection against the backend database used by the vulnerable Apache InLong component. Depending on the privileges available to the application’s database account and the surrounding deployment architecture, this may enable unauthorized data disclosure, modification or deletion of records, bypass of intended access controls at the data layer, and potentially broader compromise of application integrity or availability.
If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.
If immediate upgrade is not feasible, apply the vendor-provided patch for the issue. As a defense-in-depth measure, restrict database account privileges used by Apache InLong to the minimum necessary, reduce exposure of interfaces that accept the vulnerable parameters, and add input validation or allowlisting for identifier-like fields such as database, table, and schema names where operationally possible. Monitoring for anomalous database queries and failed parsing conditions may also help detect exploitation attempts.
Patch, then assume compromise.
Upgrade Apache InLong to version 2.4.0 or later. Where a full version upgrade cannot be performed immediately, apply the vendor-referenced fix associated with issue 12135 by cherry-picking the patch into the affected codebase. After remediation, validate that SQL construction involving dbName, tableName, schemaName, and username is no longer vulnerable to injection and review for similar unsafe query-building patterns elsewhere in the application.
