mysql2 cache poisoning vulnerability

CVE-2024-21507 / GHSA-mqr2-w7wj-jjgr

More information

Details

Versions of the package mysql2 before 3.9.3 are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation through the keyFromFields function, resulting in cache poisoning. An attacker can inject a colon : character within a value of the attacker-crafted key.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 6.9 / 10 (Medium)
  • Vector String: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N

mysql2 vulnerable to Prototype Poisoning

CVE-2024-21509 / GHSA-49j4-86m8-q2jw

More information

Details

Versions of the package mysql2 before 3.9.4 are vulnerable to Prototype Poisoning due to insecure results object creation and improper user input sanitization passed through parserFn in text_parser.js and binary_parser.js.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 6.9 / 10 (Medium)

MySQL2 for Node Arbitrary Code Injection

CVE-2024-21511 / GHSA-4rch-2fh8-94vw

More information

Details

Versions of the package mysql2 before 3.9.7 are vulnerable to Arbitrary Code Injection due to improper sanitization of the timezone parameter in the readCodeFor function by calling a native MySQL Server date/time function.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 9.8 / 10 (Critical)

mysql2 vulnerable to Prototype Pollution

CVE-2024-21512 / GHSA-pmh2-wpjm-fj45

More information

Details

Versions of the package mysql2 before 3.9.8 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution due to improper user input sanitization passed to fields and tables when using nestTables.

Severity

MySQL2: Auth Plugin Downgrade to mysql_clear_password Leaks Plaintext Credentials

GHSA-3f6p-5ww8-9rcr

More information

Details

Summary

A rogue MySQL server (or MITM) can force mysql2 to send credentials in plaintext by requesting an auth switch to mysql_clear_password. The driver complies without verifying that TLS is active.

Details

mysql_clear_password is registered as a default standard plugin in lib/commands/auth_switch.js (line 21). When a server sends an AuthSwitchRequest (0xFE) requesting mysql_clear_password, the driver executes it without checking for TLS. The plugin (lib/auth_plugins/mysql_clear_password.js) returns Buffer.from(password + '\0').

Note: caching_sha2_password plugin DOES check for SSL before sending cleartext (line 77). But mysql_clear_password has no such guard.

Attack Scenario
  1. Attacker operates rogue MySQL server or performs MITM
  2. Server advertises caching_sha2_password in handshake
  3. Client sends hashed auth response
  4. Server replies with AuthSwitchRequest to mysql_clear_password
  5. Client sends password in plaintext
  6. Attacker captures plaintext password
PoC

Rogue MySQL server (Node.js, ~80 lines) that captures plaintext passwords from mysql2 clients. Tested against mysql2 3.20.0. Full PoC available on request.

Suggested Fix

Remove mysql_clear_password from standardAuthPlugins, or add a guard requiring TLS/unix socket before allowing cleartext auth.

Impact
  • mysql2: 9M weekly downloads
  • Any application connecting without TLS is vulnerable to credential theft
  • Cloud environments with untrusted network paths are especially at risk

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 8.2 / 10 (High)
  • Vector String: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
