CVE-2026-40901 Details
Description
DataEase is an open-source data visualization and analytics platform. Versions 2.10.20 and below ship the legacy velocity-1.7.jar, which pulls in commons-collections-3.2.1.jar containing the InvokerTransformer deserialization gadget chain. Quartz 2.3.2, also bundled in the application, deserializes job data BLOBs from the qrtz_job_details table using ObjectInputStream with no deserialization filter or class allowlist. An authenticated attacker who can write to the Quartz job table, such as through the previously described SQL injection in previewSql, can replace a scheduled job's JOB_DATA with a malicious CommonsCollections6 gadget chain payload. When the Quartz cron trigger fires, the payload is deserialized and executes arbitrary commands as root inside the container, achieving full remote code execution. This issue has been fixed in version 2.10.21.
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in DataEase versions through 2.10.20. The issue arises because the application includes a vulnerable version of Quartz (2.3.2) that deserializes job data from the database without proper safeguards. This flaw can be exploited by an authenticated attacker who can inject malicious payloads into the job data, leveraging a known deserialization vulnerability in Commons Collections to execute arbitrary commands as root.
Users are advised to upgrade to DataEase version 2.10.21, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
