CVE-2026-100680 Details
Description
Budibase versions before 3.45.0 fail to disable external JSON reference resolution in the OpenAPI/Swagger import validator, allowing authenticated builders to read arbitrary local files. Attackers with builder access can embed file:// references in OpenAPI specifications submitted to the import endpoint to exfiltrate sensitive files including environment variables containing JWT secrets, API keys, and database credentials.
A vulnerability exists in Budibase versions prior to 3.45.0, where the OpenAPI/Swagger import validator does not properly disable external JSON reference resolution. This flaw allows authenticated builders to read arbitrary local files. By embedding file references in OpenAPI specifications submitted to the import endpoint, builders can exfiltrate sensitive information such as environment variables containing JWT secrets, API keys, and database credentials.
Users can upgrade to Budibase version 3.45.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched.
