Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Yamcs versions from 5.13.0 before 5.13.2 and from 5.12.0 before 5.12.8 are affected (the advisory lists the fixed versions as 5.13.2 and 5.12.8). An authenticated user holding the ControlArchiving system privilege can submit a crafted column name in a StreamSQL aggregate, which the aggregate compiler inserts unescaped into generated Java source. This allows arbitrary code execution inside the Yamcs server process. Upgrade yamcs-core to 5.13.2 or 5.12.8, or later in the same release line.
