Description
Tautulli is a Python based monitoring and tracking tool for Plex Media Server. From version 2.14.2 to before version 2.17.0 for parameters "before" and "after" and from version 2.1.0-beta to before version 2.17.0 for parameters "section_id" and "user_id", the /api/v2?cmd=get_home_stats endpoint passes the section_id, user_id, before, and after query parameters directly into SQL via Python %-string formatting without parameterization. An attacker who holds the Tautulli admin API key can inject arbitrary SQL and exfiltrate any value from the Tautulli SQLite database via boolean-blind inference. This issue has been patched in version 2.17.0.

Impact: SQL Injection allowing data exfiltration from Tautulli's SQLite database
Action: Immediate Update
AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability exists in the /api/v2?cmd=get_home_stats endpoint of Tautulli. Unsanitised query parameters (section_id, user_id, before, after) are inserted directly into SQL statements using Python string formatting, enabling attackers who possess an administrative API key to inject arbitrary SQL. The injection can be leveraged for boolean‑blind inference, allowing the attacker to read any value from the Tautulli SQLite database, compromising data confidentiality.

Affected Systems

Tautulli versions from 2.14.2 up to (but not including) 2.17.0 are affected for the before/after parameters, while versions from 2.1.0‑beta up to 2.17.0 are affected for section_id and user_id. Users running any of these builds with the vulnerable API endpoint enabled and an administrator API key are exposed to this flaw.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS base score of 4.9 indicates a moderate impact. The EPSS score is reported as less than 1 percent, suggesting a low probability of exploitation in the wild, and the flaw is not yet listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Exploitation requires the attacker to know or acquire the Tautulli admin API key, then craft a malicious request to the vulnerable endpoint; however, once the patch is applied, the issue is resolved.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the latest Tautulli update (v2.17.0 or newer) to eliminate the injection vector
  • If an immediate upgrade is not possible, revoke or limit the administrative API key used for the affected endpoint until the patch can be applied
