The parameter is passed to C4::Acquisition::GetInvoices, which allow-lists the column name but concatenates the direction token raw into the SQL ORDER BY clause without validation. Exploitation is blind (time-based) in production and allows extraction of patron PII, staff bcrypt password hashes, and two-factor secrets.","published":"2026-08-11T12:17:44.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-24T15:10:00.000Z","status":"Awaiting Analysis","sourceIdentifier":"309f9ea4-e3e9-4c6c-b79d-e8eb01244f2c","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7.1,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:L"},"cwe":["CWE-89"],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00371,"percentile":0.30836,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.37%).
