Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated session on the MindsDB instance (CVSS PR:L) and the ability to reach the OpenBBtable functionality, which involves the OpenBB integration/handler within MindsDB - a user who can create or query against an OpenBB-backed table can supply the malicious string. The core limiting factors are: (1) valid low-privilege credentials are mandatory, so purely anonymous attackers cannot exploit it directly; and (2) the vulnerable OpenBBtable code path must be reachable in the deployment. No user interaction by a victim is needed (UI:N), and the attack is fully network-based (AV:N) with low complexity (AC:L). The provided data does not specify whether the OpenBB handler is enabled by default, so defenders should verify whether that integration is present in their deployment.

Impact

This is a genuine high-priority vulnerability, though not a drop-everything emergency. The CVSS 3.0 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) reflects remote, low-complexity exploitation with full CIA impact (C:H/I:H/A:H) via Python code injection (CWE-94) that yields arbitrary code execution in the context of the MindsDB service account. The single mitigating factor is PR:L - an attacker must first hold authenticated/low-privilege access to the MindsDB instance, which meaningfully narrows the exposure compared to a pre-auth RCE. Crucially, several escalation signals are MISSING rather than negative: no EPSS exploitation-probability score was provided, the CVE is NOT in CISA KEV, and no public POC was supplied in the input, so this is not currently confirmed as actively exploited. The source is Zero Day Initiative (ZDI-26-707, formerly ZDI-CAN-28388), a credible coordinated-disclosure channel, which raises confidence in the technical accuracy of the finding but does not imply in-the-wild use. No SSVC decision data was provided. Net: treat as a real, patch-promptly issue for any internet-exposed or multi-tenant MindsDB deployment, but the authentication requirement and absence of KEV/POC/EPSS signals argue against treating it as mass-exploitation-imminent.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already possesses valid low-privilege credentials to a MindsDB instance crafts a malicious string and submits it to the OpenBBtable class, which passes it unvalidated into a Python code-execution path. Because the input is executed as Python, the attacker achieves arbitrary code execution running as the MindsDB service account, enabling data theft or host compromise. No public exploit code was identified in the provided data, and the network vector with low attack complexity (AV:N/AC:L) makes exploitation straightforward once authenticated.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026

Authenticated remote code execution in MindsDB allows a low-privileged user to run arbitrary Python in the context of the service account by supplying a crafted string to the OpenBBtable class. The flaw is a code-injection issue (CWE-94) in the OpenBB integration: the user-controlled value is used to execute Python without proper validation, and exploitation is network-reachable with low complexity but requires a valid session (CVSS PR:L). No public exploit was identified at time of analysis, and there is no CISA KEV confirmation, so this is a high-priority patch item rather than a drop-everything emergency; deployments should confirm whether the OpenBB handler is enabled and exposed.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, and no fixed version is specified in the provided data, so remediation should start with confirming exposure and applying compensating controls until an advisory update provides a patched release. If the OpenBB integration is not required, disable the OpenBB handler/table functionality; the trade-off is loss of OpenBB-backed query features. Restrict network access to the MindsDB service and its API/UI to trusted networks and users because the attack vector is network-based; this reduces reachability but does not eliminate risk from insider or compromised low-privilege accounts. Enforce least privilege and review which accounts can create or query OpenBB tables, rotate or limit low-privilege credentials, and monitor MindsDB logs for anomalous Python execution or suspicious OpenBBtable queries. Track the ZDI advisory (https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-26-707/) for a vendor fix and upgrade to the exact patched version once it is published.

Technical ContextAI · show details

CVE-2026-92207 is a CWE-94 improper control of code generation (code injection) flaw in MindsDB's OpenBBtable class. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:mindsdb:mindsdb:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies MindsDB itself, but the provided data does not constrain a version range; the vulnerable code path is the OpenBB integration/handler, where a user-supplied string is passed into Python code execution without validation or sanitization. Because the CVSS vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N, an attacker with any valid low-privilege account that can create or query an OpenBB-backed table can reach the sink over the network without victim interaction; the result is code execution as the MindsDB service account. The primary prerequisite is not a memory-safety bypass but an authorization/exposure question: the OpenBB handler must be reachable in the deployment, and the provided data does not state whether it is enabled by default.

DescriptionCVE.org

MindsDB OpenBBtable Code Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of MindsDB. Authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability.

The specific flaw exists within the OpenBBtable class. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute Python code. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the service account. Was ZDI-CAN-28388.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

MindsDB deployments that expose the OpenBB integration face a high-severity authenticated code-execution risk: a low-privileged account could potentially run arbitrary code as the service account, placing integrated data and downstream systems at risk. Because no vendor patch is currently available, leadership should treat this as an exposure-management issue requiring immediate scoping, access restriction, and monitoring rather than relying on a software fix. The business concern is concentrated in environments where the OpenBB handler is enabled and reachable by users beyond a tightly trusted group.

Business Impact: High
Compensating Controls

No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. Disable or restrict the MindsDB OpenBB/OpenBBtable integration where not required, limit network reachability to trusted administrative networks, enforce least privilege and strong authentication for MindsDB accounts, monitor logs for OpenBBtable code-execution attempts, and apply virtual patching or WAF rules if available.
