Critical (9.8) in payloadcms payload. EPSS 0.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in @payloadcms/drizzle 3.73.0.
Payload is a free and open source headless content management system. Prior to 3.73.0, when querying JSON or richText fields, user input was directly embedded into SQL without escaping, enabling blind SQL injection attacks. An unauthenticated attacker could extract sensitive data (emails, password reset tokens) and achieve full account takeover without password cracking. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.73.0.
