GHSA-g7j6-fmwx-7vp8
No affected components available
The ElementSearchController::actionSearch() endpoint is missing the unset() protection that
was added to ElementIndexesController in GHSA-2453-mppf-46cj.
The exact same SQL injection vulnerability (including criteria[orderBy], the original advisory vector) works on this controller because the fix was never applied to it.
Any authenticated control panel user (no admin required) can inject arbitrary SQL via criteria[where],
criteria[orderBy], or other query properties, and extract the full database contents via boolean-based blind injection.
Users should update to the patched 5.9.9 release to mitigate the issue.

Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
