Impact

A user can upload a skill via the /api/v1/skills/upload endpoint in DB‑GPT 0.7.5 and 0.8.0, and that skill can later be executed as part of the /api/v1/chat/react-agent flow. This allows an attacker to run arbitrary code within the DB‑GPT environment, potentially compromising data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The weakness is a form of code injection where user supplied input is executed without proper isolation.

Affected Systems

Any deployment of DB‑GPT version 0.7.5 or 0.8.0 that exposes the skill upload API to untrusted users. No specific vendor or product version list beyond the affected DB‑GPT releases is provided.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is <1% and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, indicating a very low public exploitation likelihood at this time. The CVSS score of 9.8 indicates a critical risk level, and executing an uploaded skill grants the attacker the privileges of the DB‑GPT service, posing a severe threat to data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The attack vector is inferred to be remote and requires network access to the exposed API endpoints. If the application allows anonymous or privileged users to upload skills, exploitation is expected to be straightforward once the upload path is reachable.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Restrict the /api/v1/skills/upload endpoint to trusted administrators only.
  • Implement input validation or sandboxing for uploaded skills to prevent execution of malicious code.
  • Upgrade to a later DB‑GPT version once a patch that removes this execution path becomes available.
