# CVE-2023-46575: SQL injection vulnerability in Meshery

**Signal:** Critical, preconditions apply. Severe if exploited, but exploitation needs conditions that may not apply to you. (Computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS; not an editorial verdict.)

## Should you act?

- No confirmed exploitation. It is not in CISA’s KEV catalog. That can change quickly after a public write-up; re-check if you are affected.
- EPSS 1.3% , percentile 70: FIRST’s model estimates a 1.3% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 70% of all scored CVEs (moderate). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Needs an account (high (admin)). Exposure depends on who can log in.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes github.com/layer5io/meshery (Go) < 0.6.179, fixed in 0.6.179 . Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.

## What it is

A SQL injection vulnerability exists in Meshery prior to version v0.6.179, enabling a remote attacker to retrieve sensitive information and execute arbitrary code through the “order” parameter

## Affected packages

- Go `github.com/layer5io/meshery` < 0.6.179 → fixed: 0.6.179

## Affected products (CVE record)

- n/a n/a: see advisory

## Severity

- GitHub CVSS 3.1: 9.1 `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H`

## Exploitation

- CISA KEV: not listed (no confirmed in-the-wild exploitation known to CISA).
- FIRST EPSS (model of 2026-10-21): 1.28% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 70.
