SQL injection In sequelize

Description

The function sequelize.json() incorrectly formatted sub paths for JSON queries, which allows attackers to inject SQL statements and execute arbitrary SQL queries if user input is passed to the query. Exploitation example:

return User.findAll({
  where: this.sequelize.json("data.id')) AS DECIMAL) = 1 DELETE YOLO INJECTIONS; -- ", 1)
});
