### Summary A user could utilize and exploit SQL Injection to allow the execution of malicious SQL query via Get method in sqlKvStore. ### Details I will use explainRuleHandler ("/rules/{name}/explain") as an example to illustrate. However, this vulnerability also exists in other methods such as sourceManageHandler, asyncTaskCancelHandler, pluginHandler, etc. The SQL injection can happen in the code: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L89-L93 The code to accept user input is: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/server/rest.go#L274-L277 The rule id in the above code can be used to exploit SQL query. Note that the delete function is also vulnerable: https://github.com/lf-edge/ekuiper/blob/d6457d008e129b1cdd54d76b5993992c349d1b80/internal/pkg/store/sql/sqlKv.go#L138-L141 ### PoC ``` import requests from urllib.parse import quote # SELECT val FROM 'xxx'...
