Vulnerability Data
New API is a large language mode (LLM) gateway and artificial intelligence (AI) asset management system. Prior to version 0.10.8-alpha.10, a SQL LIKE wildcard injection vulnerability in the `/api/token/search` endpoint allows authenticated users to cause denial of service through resource…

exhaustion by crafting malicious search patterns. The token search endpoint accepts user-supplied `keyword` and `token` parameters that are directly concatenated into SQL LIKE clauses without escaping wildcard characters (`%`, `_`). This allows attackers to inject patterns that trigger expensive database queries. Version 0.10.8-alpha.10 contains a patch.

Security testing in development catches injection vulnerabilities before release but does not itself implement the fix.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and query parameterization that directly prevent injection flaws.
Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection and improper query construction.
Secure architecture principles reduce the likelihood of query-logic flaws but do not prescribe the specific coding practice.
Secure coding standards require proper neutralization of special elements in all data queries.
Outsourced development agreements can require secure coding practices, indirectly mitigating the weakness.
