AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026

Remote code execution in Dataease prior to version 2.10.20 allows authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by manipulating the IniFile parameter to load malicious JDBC configuration files through the Redshift driver. An attacker with valid credentials can exploit the aggressive configuration file discovery mechanism to inject dangerous JDBC properties and gain complete system compromise. No patch is currently available, leaving affected deployments vulnerable to this high-severity attack vector.

Technical ContextAI · show details

This vulnerability (CWE-22: Path Traversal) exists in the URL component. Dataease is an open source data visualization analysis tool. Prior to 2.10.20, By controlling the IniFile parameter, an attacker can force the JDBC driver to load an attacker-controlled configuration file. This configuration file can inject dangerous JDBC properties, leading to remote code execution. The Redshift JDBC driver execution flow reaches a method named getJdbcIniFile. The getJdbcIniFile method implements an aggressive automatic configuration file discovery mechanism. If not explicitly

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Dataease is an open source data visualization analysis tool. Prior to 2.10.20, By controlling the IniFile parameter, an attacker can force the JDBC driver to load an attacker-controlled configuration file. This configuration file can inject dangerous JDBC properties, leading to remote code execution. The Redshift JDBC driver execution flow reaches a method named getJdbcIniFile. The getJdbcIniFile method implements an aggressive automatic configuration file discovery mechanism. If not explicitly restricted, it searches for a file named rsjdbc.ini. In a JDBC URL context, users can explicitly specify the configuration file via URL parameters, which allows arbitrary files on the server to be loaded as JDBC configuration files. Within the Redshift JDBC driver properties, the parameter IniFile is explicitly supported and used to load an external configuration file. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.10.20.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Dataease versions prior to 2.10.20 contain a critical remote code execution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary commands by manipulating JDBC configuration files. Organizations running affected versions face immediate risk of complete system compromise and data theft.

Business Impact: Severe
Compensating Controls

Implement network segmentation to restrict Dataease instances to trusted networks only; deploy WAF rules to block suspicious IniFile parameter patterns; disable JDBC Redshift driver if not operationally required; restrict database connection permissions to least-privilege accounts; enable comprehensive audit logging for all database configuration changes; monitor for unusual outbound connections from Dataease instances.

Attack Technique

Path traversal exploits occur when applications use user-controlled input to construct file system paths without proper validation.

Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
