How to Fix CVE-2026-5964: SQL injection in EasyFlow .NET

By Sai Kiran Pandrala. Last verified: 2026-05-25.

What is CVE-2026-5964?

EasyFlow .NET developed by Digiwin has a SQL Injection vulnerability, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to inject arbitrary SQL commands to read, modify, and delete database contents.

Am I affected?

Run the version check that matches your platform:

# Windows
winget list | findstr /I "easyflow"
Get-WmiObject Win32_Product | Where-Object { $_.Name -like "*EasyFlow .NET*" } | Select-Object Name, Version

Compare what you see against the Affected row above (Digiwin EasyFlow .NET 6.1.*, 6.6.*, 8.1.1 to <8.1.2). If your build sits inside that range, you are exposed and should patch.

How to fix CVE-2026-5964

The primary fix is to upgrade EasyFlow .NET to the patched build. Use the commands for your platform below; the patched version listed in the vendor advisory is: EasyFlow .NET 8.1.2.

Windows (PowerShell, run as administrator)

# Check installed version
Get-HotFix | Sort-Object InstalledOn -Descending | Select-Object -First 5

# Apply latest Microsoft security updates (Windows Update)
Install-Module -Name PSWindowsUpdate -Force -SkipPublisherCheck
Import-Module PSWindowsUpdate
Get-WindowsUpdate -MicrosoftUpdate
Install-WindowsUpdate -MicrosoftUpdate -AcceptAll -AutoReboot

# Or via winget for application-level patches
winget upgrade --all --accept-source-agreements --accept-package-agreements

If the affected component is a third-party application, identify the package and run:

winget upgrade --id <vendor.product>

Replace <vendor.product> with the actual winget identifier (run winget search EasyFlow .NET to find it).

If you can't patch immediately

If you cannot apply the patched version today, restrict exposure with one of the following runnable controls. None replace the patch.

Windows firewall isolation

# Allow only management subnet to reach the vulnerable service
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Restrict EasyFlow .NET" `
    -Direction Inbound -Action Block -RemoteAddress Any `
    -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 443
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Allow Mgmt EasyFlow .NET" `
    -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -RemoteAddress 10.0.0.0/8 `
    -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 443

Service-level fallback

# If the affected feature is optional, stop the service until the patch is applied
sudo systemctl stop easyflow
sudo systemctl disable easyflow

How to verify the fix worked

# Linux
easyflow --version 2>/dev/null || dpkg -s easyflow | grep -i version
rpm -q easyflow 2>/dev/null || true

# Windows
winget list | findstr /I "easyflow"
Get-HotFix | Sort-Object InstalledOn -Descending | Select-Object -First 5

Expected: the reported version is at or above EasyFlow .NET 8.1.2. Restart any services that loaded the old library (systemctl restart <service> on Linux, restart the Windows service or reboot when prompted). For network appliances, run show version on the device and confirm the build matches the patched release.

Is CVE-2026-5964 actually being exploited?

According to the data sources above, no public confirmation of in-the-wild exploitation at this time. Either way, the fix is the same: apply the vendor patch.

Do I need to reboot after patching?

For OS or kernel updates, yes. For most userland packages a systemctl restart <service> is enough. Any process that loaded the old shared library keeps using it until restarted, so when in doubt, reboot.

What is the CVSS score?

9.3 (critical). Refer to the vendor advisory for the exact vector string.

Where is the official advisory?

See the References section at the bottom of this page; the vendor's URL is the authoritative source for affected builds and patched versions.
