What is CVE-2026-25993?

CVE-2026-25993 is a SQL injection flaw in evershop. User input reaches a database query without proper parameterization, letting an attacker read, modify, or in some cases execute commands through stacked queries or out-of-band channels. Vendor description: EverShop is a TypeScript-first eCommerce platform. During category update and deletion event handling, the application embeds path / request_path values,derived from the url_key stored in the database,into SQL statements via string concatenation and passes them to execute().

Why this CVE matters

SQL injection against a management product is rarely just a data leak. Once an attacker can read or write to the application database, the chain commonly ends with credential theft, persistence via scheduled tasks, or stacked queries that pivot into the operating system.

For deployments of evershop that have been exposed to the public internet during the disclosure window, the operating assumption should be that scanning has already happened. Even where exploitation has not been publicly observed, scanning for the vulnerable fingerprint is cheap and routine. Patching closes the door; log review and credential rotation close out the rest of the response.

Am I affected?

You are affected if your installation matches any of these version ranges:

Check your installed version against the list above. If you cannot determine the version, treat the system as affected and follow the upgrade path below.

Open evershop's About dialog or run the vendor-documented version-check command. Compare the result against the affected ranges in the advisory.

How to fix CVE-2026-25993

  1. Read the vendor advisory in full: https://github.com/evershopcommerce/evershop/security/advisories/GHSA-3h84-9rhc-j2ch
  2. Upgrade evershop to the patched build listed in the vendor advisory.
  3. Back up the configuration (and database, where applicable) before upgrading.
  4. Rotate any credentials, API keys, or session tokens that the vulnerable service touched. An unauthenticated RCE-class flaw means anything the process could see should be treated as exposed.
  5. Apply the patch in a maintenance window. For HA pairs, upgrade the standby node first, fail over, then upgrade the former primary.
  6. Restart the affected service so the patched binary loads, then verify the new version (see verification section).

If you cannot patch immediately

Front the affected endpoint with a WAF rule that blocks SQL metacharacters in the vulnerable parameters. This is a stopgap, not a fix. Patch promptly.

How to verify the fix worked

If your installation was internet-reachable during the disclosure window, treat log review as part of the remediation rather than an optional follow-up. Look for unexpected administrator accounts in evershop, scheduled tasks or cron jobs you did not create, new files in web-accessible directories, and outbound connections to addresses not in your baseline. Suspicious requests to the vulnerable endpoint immediately followed by successful 200-class responses with unusually large bodies are a strong indicator of exploitation.

Frequently asked questions

Is CVE-2026-25993 being exploited in the wild?

Public exploitation has not been confirmed by CISA at the time of writing. Treat the patch as time-sensitive anyway; reports often lag actual abuse.

Will a WAF or IDS rule fully mitigate CVE-2026-25993?

No. Network-layer filters can reduce noise and slow opportunistic scanners, but they will not stop a determined attacker. The vendor patch is the only durable fix.

Do I need to assume compromise if my evershop was internet-facing and unpatched?

For an unauthenticated RCE-class flaw exposed to the public internet during the known exploitation window, yes. Review logs, rotate credentials the process could access, and look for unexpected accounts, scheduled tasks, or outbound connections.
