ArcadeDB is a Multi-Model DBMS. Prior to 26.7.1, a reader-role user can submit POST /api/v1/command/{database} with language: js because PolyglotQueryEngine.command, PolyglotQueryEngine.analyze, and PolyglotQueryEngine.registerFunctions do not enforce database-administrator authorization. GraalPolyglotEngine also permits scripts to bypass the allowedPackages whitelist by reflecting from the bound database object through database.getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass to arbitrary host classes. These cooperating defects allow a read-only database user to read arbitrary host files outside the database scope. Process creation is already blocked, so OS command execution is not confirmed. The issue is distinct from CVE-2026-44221, CVE-2026-54076, and CVE-2026-54077. This issue is fixed in version 26.7.1.
AnalysisAI
Authenticated users holding only read-only (reader) privileges on an ArcadeDB database can escalate to arbitrary JVM scripting by POSTing a {"language":"js"} command to /api/v1/command/{database}, because the polyglot query engine never applies the database-administrator authorization check enforced on the SQL/Cypher paths. A cooperating sandbox flaw lets those scripts reflect from the bound database object through database.getClass().getClassLoader().loadClass to classes outside the allowedPackages whitelist, allowing an attacker to read arbitrary host files such as /etc/passwd and configuration files outside the database scope. …
