Description
ArcadeDB before 26.8.1 (affected versions <= 26.7.3) contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the DELETE FUNCTION SQL statement. DeleteFunctionStatement.executeSimple unregisters and persists deletion of a server-side function without any checkPermissionsOnDatabase (UPDATE_SCHEMA) check. Any user with database access can execute DELETE FUNCTION via the command API (POST /api/v1/command/{db}) to permanently remove any registered server-side function, including security-relevant logic, impacting integrity and availability.

AI Analysis

Impact

ArcadeDB versions prior to 26.8.1 allow any authenticated database user to delete server‑side functions. The DELETE FUNCTION SQL statement performs unlinking and persistence of the function without enforcing an UPDATE_SCHEMA permission check. Removing a server‑side function that contains security‑relevant logic undermines data integrity and can temporarily halt application functionality.

Affected Systems

ArcadeDB deployments of version 26.7.3 or earlier are affected. The vulnerability targets the command API endpoint POST /api/v1/command/{db}. Users with database access are the audience.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 7.1 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is not reported, and the vulnerability is not listed in the KEV catalog. Attackers can leverage any database connection to issue the DELETE FUNCTION command, making exploitation straightforward for an insider or an attacker who has compromised credentials. The primary impact is loss of integrity and availability, though it may also open avenues for disabling security checks.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade ArcadeDB to version 26.8.1 or later to apply the vendor patch.
  • Restrict the permissions of database users to remove the ability to execute arbitrary commands, or enforce a checkPermissionsOnDatabase for DELETE FUNCTION.
  • Audit existing server‑side functions to ensure no critical security logic is stored unprotected and restore any deleted functions from backup.
