SQL Injection in Marten (CVE-2026-75513)

Summary

SQL injection in Marten (CVE-2026-75513). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via Where. Mitigation: upgrade to 9.13.0 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

Several code paths in Marten's LINQ provider and tenant-management internals interpolated a runtime, potentially attacker-influenced value into generated SQL as a single-quoted string literal without escaping or parameterization. A value containing a single quote (') could break out of the literal and inject arbitrary SQL.

The primary vector is a Dictionary<,> indexer key used in a Where filter — Where(x => x.Attributes[key] == v) — a common "filter by attribute name" / EAV pattern. It is confirmed with an executed proof-of-concept and yields filter / multi-tenant authorization bypass (returning other tenants' rows) and blind data exfiltration. Where the application permits ;-batched statements (Npgsql default), data modification is also possible.

Affected sinks

  • Linq/Members/Dictionaries/DictionaryItemMember.cs — dictionary indexer key (primary, confirmed PoC)
  • Linq/Members/Dictionaries/DictionaryContainsKeyFilter.cs — Dictionary.ContainsKey(key) (Newtonsoft serializer only; System.Text.Json escapes the quote)
  • Linq/Parsing/SelectParser.cs — a constant string projected through Select(x => new { L = runtimeString })
  • Internal/Operations/DeleteAllForTenant.cs — tenant id reaching per-tenant projection teardown via IEventStore.DeleteProjectionProgressAsync (an in-code comment wrongly claimed the value was validated)
  • Schema/DatabaseScopedTenantPartitions.cs — tenant id inlined into FOR VALUES IN ('...') partition DDL
  • `Events/Daemon/I…

Confidential information can be exposed externally. CVSS score: 9.1/10.
What to do: upgrade Marten to 9.13.0 or later.
If unsure, ask your IT team or search "Marten CVE-2026-75513" on the vendor's site.

CVE-2026-75513 (Marten) — CWE-89 / CVSS v3 9.1
Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: Where / IEventStore.DeleteProjectionProgressAsync / Ordering.BuildNgramRankExpression / DeleteAllForTenant
Patched: 9.13.0 — apply immediately
Workaround: Until upgrading: do not pass untrusted input as a dictionary indexer key / ContainsKey argument / Select constant, nor as a tenant id into projection teardown or provisioning; and disable multi-statement command batching to limit blast radius.
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.

❓ What is the problem

SQL injection (CWE-89) exists in Marten. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via Where.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of Marten. Attack surface: Where / IEventStore.DeleteProjectionProgressAsync / Ordering.BuildNgramRankExpression / DeleteAllForTenant.

🔥 Severity

Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.1/10). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 9.13.0.

🛡️ Workaround

Workaround: Until upgrading: do not pass untrusted input as a dictionary indexer key / ContainsKey argument / Select constant, nor as a tenant id into projection teardown or provisioning; and disable multi-statement command batching to limit blast radius.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'Marten' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'Marten' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で Marten を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply temporary workaround mitigate
    Until upgrading: do not pass untrusted input as a dictionary indexer key / `ContainsKey` argument / `Select` constant, nor as a tenant id into projection teardown or provisioning; and disable multi-statement command batching to limit blast radius.

    パッチが適用されるまでの応急処置として、Until upgrading: do not pass untrusted input as a dictionary indexer key / ContainsKey argument / Select constant, nor as a tenant id into projection teardown or provisioning; and disable multi-statement command batching to limit blast radius. を実施。回避策の副作用 (機能低下) を確認した上で。

  3. 3
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade Marten to 9.13.0

    ステージング環境で 9.13.0 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  4. 4
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
