Jpom: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic
CVE-2026-120201 is a critical-severity improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic vulnerability in Jpom from Dromara, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected Jpom versions: 2.10.0 through 2.11.12. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 2.14% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 82% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Check which version of Jpom you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
- Read the advisory on github.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description
Jpom 2.10.0 through 2.11.12 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to gain super-administrator access by injecting query conditions into the JPOM-USER-TOKEN header. Attackers can send a value like 'is not null', which Hutool's Condition parser treats as an operator, then execute commands through Jpom's script features.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Data Query Logic
The product generates a query intended to access or manipulate data in a data store such as a database, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that can modify the intended logic of the query.
