Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

CakePHP's FunctionsBuilder::jsonValue() method, when used with the PostgreSQL driver, is vulnerable to SQL injection in the cakephp/cakephp and cakephp/database Packagist packages, versions from 5.1.0 to before 5.1.10, 5.2.0 to before 5.2.15, and 5.3.0 to before 5.3.7. An attacker would need to influence the jsonPath parameter with user-controlled data, which could allow them to inject SQL into queries. Upgrade to 5.1.10, 5.2.15, 5.3.7, or a later release in the relevant series; until then, do not pass user-controlled data to that parameter.
