+### SQLi via AST/filter-to-SQL converters (JSON_VALUE predicates)
+
+Some frameworks **convert structured filter ASTs into raw SQL boolean fragments** (e.g., metadata filters or JSON predicates) and then **string-concatenate** those fragments into larger queries. If the converter **wraps string values as `'%s'` without escaping**, a single quote in user input terminates the literal and the rest is parsed as SQL.
+
+Example pattern (conceptual):
+
+```sql
+JSON_VALUE(metadata, '$.department') = '<user_value>'
+```
+
+Payload (URL-encoded): `%27%20OR%20%271%27%3D%271` → decoded: `' OR '1'='1` → predicate becomes:
+
+```sql
+JSON_VALUE(metadata, '$.department') = '' OR '1'='1'
+```
+
+Impact:
+- **Authorization bypass**: always-true predicates return cross-tenant/department rows.
+- **Destructive writes**: if the same fragment is reused in `DELETE/UPDATE ... WHERE <predicate>`, it can wipe data.
+- **RAG-specific risk**: leaked rows may only surface indirectly inside LLM answers, making detection harder.
+
+Hunting tips:
+- Look for classes that **serialize filter/AST nodes to SQL** and append them into queries via `String.format`, `+`, or templating.
+- Verify string emitters **escape single quotes and backslashes**; parameter binding only works for scalar values, not entire boolean expressions.
+- Prefer builders that keep **predicates parameterized** (values as bind params) and never inline user-controlled literals.
