Batch/time-series endpoints are network-reachable (AV:N); high complexity because per-type ACL configuration must be present (AC:H); requires authenticated database session (PR:L).
Primary rating from Vendor (VulnCheck).

Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
ArcadeDB before 26.8.1 fails to bind the authenticated principal (setCurrentUser) on its batch and time-series HTTP handlers. Because no principal is bound on the worker thread, the engine's fine-grained per-type ACL layer (LocalBucket.checkPermissionsOnFile) does not execute for these handlers. In deployments that use per-type or per-group ACLs, a user with database access but only limited per-type permissions can read from and write to types they are not authorized to access by submitting requests to the batch/time-series endpoints. Deployments that rely solely on database-level access control are not affected.
AnalysisAI
Batch and time-series HTTP handlers in ArcadeDB before 26.8.1 omit the setCurrentUser call when dispatching work to worker threads, causing the fine-grained per-type ACL layer to silently skip authorization checks for those endpoints. Authenticated users with restricted per-type permissions can read from and write to data types they are not authorized to access by routing requests through the affected handlers. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Four specific conditions must all be present: (1) the attacker must hold a valid ArcadeDB database-level credential - unauthenticated access is not possible; (2) the target ArcadeDB instance must be configured with per-type or per-group ACLs, not merely database-level access control - the vendor explicitly states deployments using only database-level control are not affected; (3) the attacker's credential must have database access but lack permission to one or more specific types that they wish to access; (4) the attacker must have network access to the ArcadeDB HTTP API and knowledge of the restricted type name. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N accurately captures the bounded nature of this flaw: the attacker must hold a valid database credential (PR:L), the target instance must be configured with per-type or per-group ACLs (AT:P, which the vendor explicitly confirms is the only affected configuration), and the impact is limited to low confidentiality and integrity effects with no availability consequence. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An authenticated ArcadeDB user with a credential scoped to limited per-type permissions submits an HTTP request to the batch or time-series endpoint specifying a restricted type name. Because the worker thread processing the request has no bound principal, LocalBucket.checkPermissionsOnFile is never invoked, and the engine processes the read or write as if no type-level restriction existed. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade ArcadeDB to version 26.8.1 or later, which corrects the principal-binding omission in the batch and time-series HTTP handlers to restore per-type ACL enforcement. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
