CVE-2026-63747 Details
Description
SurrealDB versions before 3.1.0 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the RPC use handler that panics when db is set without a namespace. Unauthenticated attackers can send a malformed WebSocket message to the /rpc endpoint to crash the server process.
A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in SurrealDB versions prior to 3.1.0. The issue arises in the WebSocket RPC 'use' handler, which crashes the server when a database is specified without an accompanying namespace. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this by sending a malformed WebSocket message to the '/rpc' endpoint, leading to a server process crash.
Users can update to SurrealDB version 3.1.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched. For those unable to update, it is recommended to restrict network access to the '/rpc' endpoint to trusted clients and to run SurrealDB under a process supervisor that can restart the service after a crash.
