Doctrine DBAL SQL injection possibility

  • Disclosed: 15.05.2024
  • Updated: 11.10.2026 10:22

The identifier quoting in Doctrine DBAL has a potential security problem when user-input is passed into this function, making the security aspect of this functionality obsolete. If you make use of AbstractPlatform::quoteIdentifier() or Doctrine::quoteIdentifier() please upgrade immediately. The ORM itself does not use identifier quoting in combination with user-input, however we still urge everyone to update to the latest version of DBAL.
