Description

The findOne function in TypeORM before 0.3.0 can either be supplied with a string or a FindOneOptions object. When input to the function is a user-controlled parsed JSON object, supplying a crafted FindOneOptions instead of an id string leads to SQL injection. NOTE: the vendor's position is that the user's application is responsible for input validation

Affected products

• typeorm: before 0.3.0 — fixed in 0.3.0

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: typeorm 0.3.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
