CVE-2026-45535 dataease CVE debrief

Who should care

Users of DataEase versions prior to 2.10.23 should be aware of this vulnerability and take steps to mitigate it. This includes upgrading to version 2.10.23 or later, and restricting access to sensitive datasets. Operators, platform administrators, vulnerability management teams, and security teams should review the vulnerability and take necessary actions to protect their systems.

Technical summary

The vulnerability exists in DataEase SQL-type datasets, where attacker-controlled SQL variable defaultValue entries, such as ${var}, are stored. When a user with dataset read permission accesses the dataset, the SqlparserUtils.handleVariableDefaultValue() function inserts these entries using String.replace() without escaping or parameterization, leading to stored SQL injection. This issue is fixed in version 2.10.23. The vulnerability has a high CVSS score of 8.7 and is considered a high-severity issue.
