Hunt injection into search and analytics engines such as Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, and Solr where untrusted input reaches a query DSL body, a query-string or Lucene query, a script field, or a stored scripting expression. Covers request data that becomes query structure (a filter clause, a field selector, an aggregation) rather than a bound term, a raw query-string parameter whose Lucene syntax the caller controls, and script injection through inline or stored scripts that run in the engine.…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Hunting search-engine injection: when a search query is attacker-shaped Search and analytics engines take rich structured queries, and applications frequently build those queries from user input. The injection surface has three shapes. First, the query DSL body: when a request object is merged into the query JSON, the attacker can add filter clauses, select fields the caller was not meant to read, or attach aggregations that reveal data across the index. Second, the raw query string: a `query_string` or Lucene query parameter exposes operators, field selectors, and wildcards, so a caller who controls it can query fields and ranges outside the intended scope. Third, scripting: inline or stored scripts run inside the engine, and untrusted input reaching a script is code execution in the cluster. You find these by separating bound search terms from query structure and scripts, and tracing untrusted input into the latter. ## When to use - An application forwards user input into a search or analytics cluster as query JSON or a query string. - A request object is merged into the query DSL, or a raw Lucene/query-string parameter is caller-controlled. …

How to install
mdr add unboundcompute/security-agent-skills/hunting-search-engine-injection@sha256:fd7b32a8381c01e2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260826.c45369b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
