SQL Injection in sequelize
Affected versions of sequelize are vulnerable to SQL Injection. The package fails to sanitize JSON path keys in the MariaDB and MySQL dialects, which may allow attackers to inject SQL statements and execute arbitrary SQL queries.
Recommendation
If you are using sequelize 5.x, upgrade to version 5.8.11 or later.
If you are using sequelize 4.x, upgrade to version 4.44.3 or later.
If you are using sequelize 3.x, upgrade to version 3.35.1 or later.
