DescriptionCVE.org

Metabase is an open-source business intelligence and embedded analytics tool. From 1.55.0 until 1.58.15.1, 1.59.12, 1.60.6.3, and 1.61.2, Metabase did not validate unsafe H2 connection properties on one database-creation code path, allowing an authenticated administrator to register a crafted H2 database connection and execute arbitrary Java code on the Metabase server. This issue is fixed in versions 1.58.15.1, 1.59.12, 1.60.6.3, and 1.61.2.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Metabase (open-source BI/analytics platform) versions 1.55.0 through the fixed releases arises because one database-creation code path failed to validate unsafe H2 JDBC connection properties, letting an authenticated administrator register a crafted H2 datasource and run arbitrary Java on the server host. Because the CVSS scope is Changed (S:C), successful exploitation escapes the application context and yields full host compromise. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an authenticated Metabase administrator (CVSS PR:H) with permission to create/register a new database connection, and specifically the ability to add an H2-type datasource with attacker-controlled connection properties - this is the exact feature abused. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals are moderately consistent but qualified by the privilege requirement. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has obtained Metabase administrator access (via credential theft, phishing, or a malicious insider) navigates to the Add Database workflow and registers a new H2 connection whose properties embed a Java routine (e.g., a CREATE ALIAS/TRIGGER or INIT payload). When Metabase establishes the connection on the vulnerable code path, the embedded code runs in the server JVM, giving the attacker command execution on the host and, because scope changes, control beyond the application. …
Remediation Vendor-released patch: upgrade to 1.58.15.1, 1.59.12, 1.60.6.3, or 1.61.2 (open-source tags v0.58.15.1, v0.59.12, v0.60.6.3, v0.61.2), choosing the fixed release on your current release line; the fix commit is 74032e5e0a5a70dc45a6a744d37b9ba24eee8d01 and full details are in advisory https://github.com/metabase/metabase/security/advisories/GHSA-8wx2-rxp2-4x35. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: audit all Metabase administrator accounts and disable unnecessary admin privileges; restrict network access to Metabase to trusted IP ranges only. …
