Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The npm package generator-jhipster, versions 7.0.0 up to 9.4.0 (fixed in 9.4.0), generates reactive WebFlux and R2DBC applications with an SQL injection in the sort parameter of paginated entity list endpoints. An attacker with a low-privileged authenticated account, which can include one obtained through default self-registration, can run arbitrary SQL against the database, reading or changing data or dropping tables. Upgrade generator-jhipster to 9.4.0 and regenerate affected applications, since the vulnerable code is produced at generation time.
