Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated DataEase account with permission to create or edit a MySQL datasource configuration (CVSS PR:L). The attacker must submit the datasource as JSON that overwrites the illegalParameters blocklist with an empty list and enable the JDBC parameter allowLoadLocalInfile=true, and must point the datasource at an attacker-controlled (rogue) MySQL server that the DataEase host can reach over the network - the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE protocol feature is server-initiated. Limiting factors: valid credentials and datasource-edit privileges are needed (not unauthenticated), the DataEase server must have outbound network reachability to the attacker's MySQL endpoint, and only versions ≤2.10.20 are affected. No end-user interaction is required (UI:N).

Impact

Signals are largely consistent and point to a real but bounded risk. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N, VC:H, SC:H) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity attack requiring low-privilege authentication, with high confidentiality impact and a subsequent-system confidentiality impact (reflecting exfiltration of credentials that pivot elsewhere). CISA SSVC aligns: Exploitation=none, Automatable=no, Technical Impact=partial - i.e., no observed exploitation and not trivially scriptable at scale. EPSS is very low at 0.04% (11th percentile), and there is no KEV listing and no known POC, so this is not an urgent mass-exploitation event. The main caveat: exploitation is gated behind valid authentication and the ability to create/edit a datasource, plus attacker control of a rogue MySQL endpoint the DataEase host can reach - meaningful limiting factors. Net: prioritize patching for internet-exposed or multi-tenant DataEase instances (where low-priv accounts are plentiful), but this is not a drop-everything, wormable issue.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A low-privileged authenticated DataEase user stands up a rogue MySQL server they control and creates a new MySQL datasource, submitting JSON that sets illegalParameters to an empty list and includes allowLoadLocalInfile=true in the JDBC connection. When DataEase connects, the malicious server issues LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE requests to read files like environment variable dumps or database-credential files off the DataEase host, returning them to the attacker. No public POC has been identified, but the vendor advisory documents the full chain.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 24, 2026

Arbitrary file read in DataEase (open-source data visualization and analytics platform) versions 2.10.20 and below lets an authenticated attacker exfiltrate sensitive files from the server host by abusing the MySQL datasource configuration. Because the Mysql class exposes an auto-generated public setter for its JDBC security blocklist (via Lombok @Data), a crafted JSON datasource payload replaces the blocklist with an empty list before validation, enabling dangerous JDBC parameters like allowLoadLocalInfile=true. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.04%), but the technical chain is well-documented in the vendor GHSA advisory.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to DataEase 2.10.21, which fixes this arbitrary file read / credential exfiltration issue (see the release notes at https://github.com/dataease/dataease/releases/tag/v2.10.21 and advisory GHSA-944x-93jf-h3rx). Note that 2.10.21 introduces a breaking change - frontend user credential names gain a de_v2_ prefix (e.g., user.token becomes de_v2_user.token), which affects integrations such as SQLBot advanced apps, so test integrations before rolling out. Where immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict who can create or modify datasource configurations by tightening role/permission assignments so only trusted administrators hold datasource-edit rights (trade-off: reduces self-service analytics onboarding); apply egress network controls so the DataEase server cannot open outbound MySQL (TCP 3306 and any custom MySQL ports) connections to untrusted hosts, which blocks the rogue-server LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE channel (trade-off: legitimate external MySQL datasources must be explicitly allowlisted); and monitor datasource JSON submissions for illegalParameters manipulation or JDBC parameters such as allowLoadLocalInfile. Since 2.10.21 also bundles fixes for several other CVEs, upgrading is strongly preferred over compensating controls alone.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw lives in DataEase's datasource-configuration deserialization path. The Mysql configuration class holds an illegalParameters field enumerating a JDBC parameter blocklist meant to be enforced inside getJdbc(). Lombok's @Data annotation auto-generates a public setIllegalParameters setter, and when Jackson deserializes attacker-supplied JSON it invokes that setter, overwriting the blocklist with an empty collection before validation executes - a classic order-of-operations trust failure. This maps to CWE-183 (Permissive List of Allowed Inputs): the security control is a denylist that is itself mutable from untrusted input. The downstream primitive is MySQL's LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE feature: a client configured with allowLoadLocalInfile=true will, when connecting to a malicious MySQL server, honor server-initiated requests to upload local files, turning a benign-looking datasource connection into an arbitrary file-read channel. Affected component per CPE is cpe:2.3:a:dataease:dataease across all versions up to the fix.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

DataEase is an open-source data visualization and analytics platform. Versions 2.10.20 and below contain a JDBC parameter blocklist bypass vulnerability in the MySQL datasource configuration. The Mysql class uses Lombok's @Data annotation, which auto-generates a public setter for the illegalParameters field that contains the JDBC security blocklist. When a datasource configuration is submitted as JSON, Jackson deserialization calls setIllegalParameters with an attacker-supplied empty list, replacing the blocklist before getJdbc() validation runs. This allows an authenticated attacker to include dangerous JDBC parameters such as allowLoadLocalInfile=true, and by pointing the datasource at a rogue MySQL server, exploit the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE protocol feature to read arbitrary files from the DataEase server filesystem, including sensitive environment variables and database credentials. This issue has been fixed in version 2.10.21.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

DataEase open-source analytics platform (versions 2.10.20 and below) contains an arbitrary file read vulnerability that allows exfiltration of sensitive server data through malicious datasource configuration. Organizations using affected versions face risk of credentials, configuration files, and other sensitive data being read from the host server. Patching is available and should be prioritized immediately.
