CVE-2026-0603 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade org.hibernate:hibernate-core to version 5.3.38 or higher.
Overview
org.hibernate:hibernate-core is a library providing Object/Relational Mapping (ORM) support to applications, libraries, and frameworks.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to SQL Injection via the InlineIdsOrClauseBuilder component when unsanitized non-alphanumeric characters are present in the ID column. An attacker can access sensitive information and manipulate or delete data by injecting crafted input.
Note:
This is only exploitable if the user is able to set their own ids and those ids allow non-alphanumeric characters and the application is using InlineIdsOrClauseBuilder.
