AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H
Network vector applies because exploitation routes through a downstream app interface; PR:L reflects mandatory low-privileged application access; no confidentiality impact documented; integrity and availability both high due to unauthorized Snowflake object manipulation.
Primary rating from Vendor (SNOWFLAKE).

Insufficient input sanitization in Snowflake Python API (snowflake.core) versions prior to 1.13.0 allowed confused-deputy privilege escalation through two related weaknesses: path traversal (CWE-22) via unencoded .. identifier path segments, and HTTP parameter pollution (CWE-141) via unencoded &/#/= characters in query string values. An attacker with access to a downstream application built on snowflake.core could exploit the path traversal by supplying .. as an object name, causing snowflake.core to issue REST requests against a parent resource or exploit the parameter pollution by injecting &/#/= into a free-form name field to override constraints on swap, clone, or rename operations - all executed under the application's privileged session. Successful exploitation requires the attacker to control an identifier or object-name string in an application built on snowflake.core that passes it to snowflake.core under a higher-privileged Snowflake session (e.g., an EXECUTE AS OWNER stored procedure, Streamlit app, or Native App). The fix is available in Snowflake Python API version 1.13.0, which also addresses several additional security findings. Users must manually upgrade.

AnalysisAI
Confused-deputy privilege escalation in snowflake.core (Snowflake Python API) prior to version 1.13.0 enables attackers with low-privileged access to a downstream application to perform unauthorized Snowflake operations under the application's higher-privileged session. Two related input-sanitization weaknesses make this possible: path traversal via unencoded .. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires all of the following to hold simultaneously: (1) the target application must be built on `snowflake.core` versions prior to 1.13.0; (2) the application must accept user-influenced input - specifically object names or identifier strings - and pass that input unsanitized to snowflake.core API calls; (3) those API calls must execute under a Snowflake session with elevated privileges, specifically deployment patterns such as an EXECUTE AS OWNER stored procedure, a Streamlit app running under a privileged role, or a Snowflake Native App; and (4) the attacker must hold at least low-privileged access to the downstream application (CVSS PR:L), meaning they can interact with its input interface. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The vendor-assigned CVSS 8.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H) is well-calibrated: the network attack vector is correct because the attacker interacts through a downstream application interface rather than Snowflake directly, and PR:L reflects the gating requirement of authenticated or recognized access to that application. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker with low-privileged access to a Streamlit app or Native App built on snowflake.core submits an object name containing `..` or characters such as `&target=privileged_object` into a field used for a clone or rename operation. The unpatched library embeds this input directly into the REST request URL or query string, causing Snowflake's backend to apply the operation to an unintended resource - all executed under the application's EXECUTE AS OWNER privileged session. … |
| Remediation | Upgrade `snowflake.core` to version 1.13.0 immediately, as this release contains Snowflake's fix for both the path traversal and HTTP parameter pollution weaknesses, along with additional security improvements disclosed by the vendor. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
