Summary

CVE-2026-33078 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Roxy-Wi Roxy-Wi. Its CVSS base score is 8.9 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 28th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2026-33078 is a SQL injection vulnerability affecting Roxy-WI, a web interface for managing HAProxy, Nginx, Apache, and Keepalived servers. Versions prior to 8.2.6.4 are vulnerable due to improper handling of the server_ip parameter in the haproxy_section_save function located in app/routes/config/routes.py. This parameter, sourced directly from the URL path, is passed unsanitized through multiple function calls and interpolated into a SQL query string via Python string formatting, enabling arbitrary SQL command execution. The vulnerability is rated with a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) and is associated with CWE-89.

The vulnerability can be exploited remotely over the network by unauthenticated attackers with low complexity and no user interaction required. Successful exploitation allows attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands against the backend database, potentially leading to high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability violations, such as data exfiltration, modification, or deletion.

Mitigation is addressed in Roxy-WI version 8.2.6.4, which fixes the issue through a patch detailed in the project's GitHub commit aecc7971959092fa93e93531f1ffcde33524b031. Security practitioners should upgrade to this version immediately, as outlined in the GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-jmj9-2c4q-849j.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation can discover SQLi flaws before deployment but does not stop their introduction.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from reaching SQL query construction without neutralization.

Secure engineering principles require parameterized queries and input sanitization that structurally eliminate SQLi.

System monitoring can identify attempted SQLi exploitation via anomalous queries after the weakness exists.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly target injection flaws during coding and review so largely prevent CWE-89 introduction, yet the single broad outcome leaves residual risk from incomplete neutralization techniques or missed edge cases.

PR.AT-02 partial match
prevents

Training raises developer awareness of SQLi risks and can reduce introduction likelihood (partial) but removes none of the actual coding flaw's risk by itself since technical neutralization is still required.

finds

The same secure-coding and static-analysis activities surface missing neutralization of SQL metacharacters before the system is accepted.

prevents

Early warnings and shared best-practice information help organizations apply the latest remediation techniques against SQL-injection vulnerabilities.

prevents

Threat-intelligence feeds that surface new SQL-injection campaigns enable rapid updates to query-construction defenses and detection signatures before exploitation occurs.

prevents

Secure-coding rules and security testing phases mandate the use of parameterized queries or equivalent escaping, preventing the construction of dynamic SQL statements from untrusted input.

prevents

Language-specific secure coding rules, peer review and SAST together prevent the construction of SQL statements from untrusted data without proper parameterization or escaping.
