Overview

CVE-2022-24854 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on April 14, 2022 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.0 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.0, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

Metabase is an open source business intelligence and analytics application. SQLite has an FDW-like feature called `ATTACH DATABASE`, which allows connecting multiple SQLite databases via the initial connection. If the attacker has SQL permissions to at least one SQLite database, then it can attach this database to a second database, and then it can query across all the tables. To be able to do that the attacker also needs to know the file path to the second database. Users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible. If you're unable to upgrade, you can modify your SQLIte connection strings to contain the url argument `?limit_attached=0`, which will disallow making connections to other SQLite databases. Only users making use of SQLite are affected.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
