Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Budibase is an open-source low-code platform. Prior to version 3.33.4, an unauthenticated attacker can achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) on the Budibase server by triggering an automation that contains a Bash step via the public webhook endpoint. No authentication is required to trigger the exploit. The process executes as root inside the container. This issue has been patched in version 3.33.4.
AnalysisAI
Remote code execution in Budibase versions prior to 3.33.4 allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary Bash commands with root privileges inside the application container by exploiting public webhook endpoints that trigger automation workflows. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of special elements in OS commands (CWE-78) and requires no authentication, though the CVSS complexity is rated high (AC:H). A vendor-released patch is available in version 3.33.4, with the fix publicly documented in GitHub pull request #18238 and commit f0c731b4.
Technical ContextAI
Budibase is an open-source low-code application development platform that enables users to build internal tools through visual workflows and automations. The vulnerability exploits the automation engine's Bash execution step capability, which can be triggered through public webhook endpoints without authentication validation. The root cause is OS command injection (CWE-78), where user-controlled input reaches the Bash interpreter without proper sanitization. The affected component is cpe:2.3:a:budibase:budibase prior to version 3.33.4. The platform's architecture runs the automation engine with root privileges inside containerized deployments, amplifying the impact scope. Public webhook endpoints are designed for third-party integrations but lacked authentication enforcement for automation triggers containing script execution steps, creating an unauthenticated code execution path.
RemediationAI
Upgrade immediately to Budibase version 3.33.4 or later, which contains the security patch addressing the unauthenticated RCE vulnerability. The fix is documented in GitHub pull request https://github.com/Budibase/budibase/pull/18238 and implemented in commit f0c731b409a96e401445a6a6030d2994ff4ac256, available in the official 3.33.4 release at https://github.com/Budibase/budibase/releases/tag/3.33.4. If immediate patching is not possible, implement network-level access controls to restrict webhook endpoint access to trusted IP ranges, disable public webhook functionality for automations containing Bash execution steps, or remove Bash step capabilities from automation workflows until patching is completed. Review container security configurations to implement principle of least privilege and consider running Budibase processes as non-root users where deployment architecture permits.
