MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires an authenticated session (CVSS PR:L) able to reach POST /de2api/datasetTree/exportDataset, and the attacker must supply an expressionTree filtering object that uses a 'like' filter term whose value escapes the string literal to inject SQL - this is the exact prerequisite named in the advisory. No special non-default product configuration is needed beyond having the dataset export functionality available and a valid low-privilege account; limiting factors are the authentication requirement (rules out fully anonymous attackers) and network reachability of the endpoint. Because injection is blind, the attacker relies on inference techniques (e.g. time-based extraction) rather than direct output, which slows but does not prevent data theft. |
| Impact | The CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.7 (High) with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N and total confidentiality/integrity/availability impact on the vulnerable system (VC:H/VI:H/VA:H), meaning network-reachable exploitation of low complexity that nonetheless requires some authentication (PR:L). SSVC classifies exploitation as 'poc' (proof-of-concept, not observed in the wild), automatable 'no', and technical impact 'total' - consistent with a real but not self-propagating threat. Countervailing signals: EPSS is very low at 0.03% (8th percentile) and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, indicating no evidence of widespread or active exploitation. Net assessment: a genuine, high-severity injection that yields full database compromise once an attacker holds a valid low-privileged account, but current real-world exploitation pressure is low and any attack requires prior authentication, so it is a prompt-patch item rather than an emergency drop-everything scenario. Note the PR:L requirement means this is not exploitable by fully anonymous internet attackers unless the instance grants low-privilege accounts broadly or is exposed with weak credentials. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with any low-privileged DataEase account crafts a POST to /de2api/datasetTree/exportDataset containing an expressionTree whose 'like' filter value embeds a quote to escape the string literal and append a time-based payload. Because the value is concatenated straight into the SQL WHERE clause, the injected commands execute against the backend database, letting the attacker enumerate schema and exfiltrate data one boolean/timing observation at a time. Public proof-of-concept knowledge exists (SSVC: poc), and low attack complexity makes the technique reliable once a foothold account is obtained. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 24, 2026
SQL injection in DataEase's dataset export endpoint (POST /de2api/datasetTree/exportDataset) lets an authenticated attacker inject arbitrary SQL through the expressionTree parameter in versions 2.10.20 and below. User-controlled values in 'like' filter terms are concatenated unsanitized into SQL during filter-tree translation, enabling blind, time-based extraction of database contents. Publicly available exploit code exists (SSVC: poc); EPSS is low (0.03%, 8th percentile) and the flaw is not in CISA KEV, so no active exploitation is confirmed. Fixed in 2.10.21.
RemediationAI
Upgrade to DataEase v2.10.21, which contains the vendor fix for this issue (Vendor-released patch: 2.10.21); note that this release also changes frontend credential naming (e.g. user.token becomes de_v2_user.token), which may require adjusting integrations such as SQLBot advanced apps, and it bundles fixes for several other SQL injection and related flaws (CVE-2026-33083, -33084, -33121, -33122, -33207 among others), so patching addresses multiple vulnerabilities at once. Refer to the advisory at https://github.com/dataease/dataease/security/advisories/GHSA-xxpw-2c8q-g693 and the release notes at https://github.com/dataease/dataease/releases/tag/v2.10.21. If immediate upgrade is not possible, compensating controls include restricting network access to the /de2api/datasetTree/exportDataset endpoint (and the DataEase management interface generally) to trusted networks via reverse-proxy or WAF rules that block quote/SQL metacharacters in the expressionTree payload - with the trade-off of possible false positives on legitimate filter values - tightening account provisioning so low-privilege accounts are not freely issued, and monitoring database logs for anomalous time-delay queries indicative of blind injection.

Technical ContextAI · show details
DataEase is an open-source business-intelligence and data-visualization platform. The vulnerable path is its dataset export feature: the expressionTree JSON parameter is deserialized into a filtering object and handed to WhereTree2Str.transFilterTrees, which converts the filter model into a SQL WHERE clause. For 'like' filter operators, the user-supplied value is directly string-concatenated into the generated SQL fragment rather than being bound as a parameter, so a value that closes the string literal (e.g. an embedded quote) breaks out of the intended predicate. This is a classic CWE-89 (Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command) failure rooted in dynamic query construction instead of parameterized queries. CPE cpe:2.3:a:dataease:dataease identifies the affected product.

Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionGitHub Advisory
DataEase is an open source data visualization analysis tool. Versions 2.10.20 and below contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the dataset export functionality. The expressionTree parameter in POST /de2api/datasetTree/exportDataset is deserialized into a filtering object and passed to WhereTree2Str.transFilterTrees for SQL translation, where user-controlled values in "like" filter terms are directly concatenated into SQL fragments without sanitization. An attacker can inject arbitrary SQL commands by escaping the string literal in the filter value, enabling blind SQL injection through techniques such as time-based extraction of database information. This issue has been fixed in version 2.10.21.
Executive ViewAI
DataEase instances running version 2.10.20 and earlier contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the dataset export endpoint that allows authenticated users to extract database contents. Organizations using this product face potential exposure of sensitive data stored in DataEase, with direct implications for data governance and regulatory compliance.
