CVE-2026-76954
Overview
This vulnerability is an SQL injection flaw caused by improper neutralization of special characters within SQL commands. It affects the Auth API component of Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM), allowing malicious input to be injected directly into backend database queries. The root cause lies in insufficient input validation and sanitization of parameters processed by the authentication interface.
Vulnerability Description
An improper neutralization of special elements used in an SQL command vulnerability in the Auth API in Synology DiskStation Manager (DSM) before 7.2.1-69057-13, 7.2.2-72806-10, 7.3.2-86009-5, and 7.4.1-90080-1 allows remote attackers to read or write arbitrary files and conduct denial-of-service attacks.
Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can leverage this vulnerability to read or modify arbitrary files on the affected system, compromising data confidentiality and integrity. Additionally, the attacker can cause denial-of-service by disrupting normal database operations or service availability. This enables full system compromise scenarios, including unauthorized access to sensitive information and potential lateral movement within the network environment.
Solution
Synology has released patches addressing this vulnerability in DSM versions 7.2.1-69057-13, 7.2.2-72806-10, 7.3.2-86009-5, and 7.4.1-90080-1 as detailed in advisory Synology_SA_26_19 available at https://www.synology.com/en-global/security/advisory/Synology_SA_26_19. Users should upgrade affected DSM installations to these fixed versions promptly. No alternative workarounds are specified by the vendor.
