Until an official fix is available, users should consider implementing temporary mitigations such as input validation, web application firewalls (WAFs) with SQL injection protections, or disabling vulnerable functionality if feasible. Monitor vendor channels closely for updates and patches.
Description
Kestra versions 1.3.3 and earlier are affected by a critical SQL Injection vulnerability due to improper sanitization of user input in a GET parameter. This allows attackers to inject arbitrary SQL code into database queries, potentially leading to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 9.8, indicating a critical severity level. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. There are no known exploits in the wild at this time.
