AI-suggested

This vulnerability is fixed in Dgraph version 25.3.3. Users should upgrade to version 25.3.3 or later to remediate the issue. Until upgraded, enabling ACL (Access Control Lists) can mitigate exposure by restricting unauthenticated access. Monitor vendor channels for official advisories and patches.

Description

A critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-41327) exists in dgraph-io dgraph versions prior to 25.3.3 where an unauthenticated attacker can gain full read access to all data in the database. This occurs due to improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic (CWE-943) in the cond field of an upsert mutation. The vulnerability arises because the cond value is concatenated directly into a DQL query string without proper escaping or validation, allowing injection of additional query blocks. The issue affects default configurations without ACL enabled. The vulnerability is fixed in version 25.3.3.
