MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Impact | The CVSS v4.0 score of 6.3 reflects a medium severity rating driven by high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact (VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) but mitigated by the authentication requirement (PR:L). The network vector (AV:N) and low complexity (AC:L) indicate ease of exploitation once credentials are obtained. However, the requirement for Team Admin or Global Admin privileges significantly limits the real-world attack surface compared to unauthenticated vulnerabilities. No KEV status, active exploitation confirmation, or public proof-of-concept availability is indicated in the provided data. The exploit is automatable once authentication is achieved, but the need for elevated administrative privileges makes opportunistic exploitation unlikely in most deployments. Organizations should prioritize patching based on their internal admin account security posture and whether they permit admin credential sharing or temporary elevation scenarios. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A disgruntled Team Admin with legitimate access to the Fleet API crafts a malicious MDM bootstrap package configuration containing SQL injection payloads targeting the team configuration endpoint. The attacker injects a UNION-based SQL injection payload that exfiltrates the usernames and password hashes of other administrator accounts from the database, or modifies an existing team's device compliance policies to disable security enforcement across enrolled devices. Alternatively, an external attacker who obtains Team Admin credentials through phishing or password reuse exploits this vulnerability to query sensitive MDM device data or modify configurations across multiple teams without leaving obvious audit trails. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Mar 27, 2026
SQL injection in Fleet device management software versions prior to 4.81.0 allows authenticated Team Admin or Global Admin users to execute arbitrary SQL queries against the Fleet database via the MDM bootstrap package configuration API endpoint. Attackers with these privileges can exfiltrate sensitive data, modify arbitrary team configurations, and inject malicious content into team settings. The vulnerability requires authentication but poses significant risk to multi-tenant Fleet deployments where administrative credentials may be compromised or where insider threats exist.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Fleet to version 4.81.0 or later immediately, as vendor-released patch 4.81.0 addresses the SQL injection flaw. For environments unable to patch immediately, restrict administrative API access to trusted networks via firewall rules, enforce strong authentication for Team Admin and Global Admin accounts, disable MDM bootstrap package configuration functionality if unused, and audit recent changes to team configurations for signs of unauthorized modification. Regular access reviews of administrative accounts should be conducted to detect compromised credentials.

Technical ContextAI · show details
Fleet (cpe:2.3:a:fleetdm:fleet) is an open-source device management platform that uses SQL databases to store configuration and device data. The vulnerability exists in the MDM (Mobile Device Management) bootstrap package configuration handler, which fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input before incorporating it into SQL queries. This is a classic CWE-89 SQL injection flaw where attacker-controlled data reaches a SQL query construction context without parameterized query defense. The affected API endpoints accept configuration data directly from authenticated administrators and pass it unsafely to the database layer, allowing attackers to break out of the intended query context and execute arbitrary SQL commands.

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
Fleet is open source device management software. Prior to 4.81.0, a SQL injection vulnerability in Fleet's MDM bootstrap package configuration allows an authenticated user with Team Admin or Global Admin privileges to modify arbitrary team configurations, exfiltrate sensitive data from the Fleet database, and inject arbitrary content into team configs via direct API calls. Version 4.81.0 patches the issue.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using Fleet should be aware of moderate risk from CVE-2026-34386, a SQL injection vulnerability rated CVSS 6.3. Exploitation could allow attackers to execute code or inject malicious input. Organizations should apply vendor updates when available and monitor for exploitation.
Apply vendor patch. If patching is delayed: deploy WAF rules, restrict network access, enable logging.
