Description
ArcadeDB from 26.2.1 before 26.10.1 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the Bolt protocol handler that lets authenticated users read other databases' schema metadata. Attackers with credentials for one database can set the db field in RUN or BEGIN messages and call db.labels() or SHOW INDEXES to enumerate unauthorized schemas.

Impact

ArcadeDB versions 26.2.1 through 26.10.0 contain a missing authorization defect in the Bolt protocol handler. The flaw permits an authenticated user to set the database field in RUN or BEGIN messages and invoke commands such as db.labels() or SHOW INDEXES, enabling enumeration of schema metadata for databases other than the one the attacker is authorized to access. This effectively exposes structural information about unauthorized databases, compromising confidentiality by revealing table names, indexes, and other schema details that could assist in further attacks.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects ArcadeData ArcadeDB editions from 26.2.1 up to but not including 26.10.1. Users running these versions on any platform are susceptible, as the Bolt protocol endpoint accepts database‑selection parameters without enforcing per‑database authentication.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 5.3 the issue represents moderate severity. The EPSS score of less than 1% indicates a low probability of exploitation in the wild, and the vulnerability is not catalogued in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list. The attack vector requires an attacker to first obtain valid credentials for at least one database; once logged in, they can manipulate the bolt protocol messages to read other databases’ metadata. Because the flaw resides in an authorized channel, it is unlikely to be exploitable by unauthenticated attackers without access to valid credentials.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade ArcadeDB to version 26.10.1 or later to apply the missing authorization fix.
  • If immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict Bolt protocol access to trusted hosts or isolated networks to reduce the attack surface.
  • Implement additional application‑level checks to verify that any database selection in bolt messages is authorized for the current user, thereby restoring proper per‑database access controls consistent with CWE‑862.
