CVE-2026-77635
Prior to versions 5.1.10, 5.2.15, and 5.3.7 on their respective release lines, FunctionsBuilder::jsonValue() with PostgresDriver is vulnerable to SQL injection when user-controlled data is supplied to the jsonPath parameter.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.49%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
