Spring Data MongoDB Has Regex Parameter Binding Injection in @Query Repository Methods
Quick fix
GHSA-hc43-m36c-8v33 — org.springframework.data:spring-data-mongodb: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
# pom.xml: bump <version>5.0.6</version> for org.springframework.data:spring-data-mongodb Details
Spring Data MongoDB repository query methods annotated with @Query that use regex parameter binding perform insufficient validation of the bound parameter. An attacker can supply a crafted string to break out of the intended regular expression quoting.
Affected versions: Spring Data MongoDB 5.0.0 through 5.0.5; 4.5.0 through 4.5.11; 4.4.0 through 4.4.14; 4.3.0 through 4.3.16; 4.2.0 through 4.2.15; 4.1.0 through 4.1.14; 4.0.0 through 4.0.15; 3.4.0 through 3.4.19.
