Nextcloud: Tables app allows limited SQLi in ORDER BY with malicious sort order argument for Table Views
Nextcloud is an open source content collaboration platform. From versions 0.9.0 to before 0.9.7, and 1.0.0 to before 1.0.2, a missing sanitization in the Tables app allowed a user with access to the tables app to perform a limited SQL injection in the ORDER BY statement of a query. Compared to normal SQL injections, the ORDER BY is limited to extracting a single bit of information per request or to make the database wait for a given time. This issue has been patched in versions 0.9.7 and 1.0.2.

Root cause
The query text is built by concatenating user input. The database cannot tell where the data ends and the command begins.
