CVE-2026-50148

CWE-73Published: July 15, 2026· Updated: Jul 15, 2026

10.0
CVSS v3.1

Official Description

Metabase is an open-source business intelligence and embedded analytics tool. From 1.54.0 until 1.54.24, 1.55.24, 1.56.25, 1.57.19, 1.58.14, 1.59.10, and 1.60.4, a Metabase user with permission to add or edit a database connection can achieve remote code execution on the Metabase server by configuring a Snowflake connection to an attacker-controlled server, because a flaw in the Snowflake JDBC driver can write arbitrary files anywhere on the Metabase host, including replacing one of Metabase's own database driver files that later executes inside the Metabase process. This issue is fixed in versions 1.54.24, 1.55.24, 1.56.25, 1.57.19, 1.58.14, 1.59.10, and 1.60.4.

Risk Analysis

This critical vulnerability in Metabase, an open-source business intelligence tool, allows for remote code execution on the Metabase server. A user with database connection permissions can configure a Snowflake connection to an attacker-controlled server, exploiting a flaw in the Snowflake JDBC driver to write arbitrary files and execute code. The CVSS score of 10.0 signifies the highest possible severity.

No public exploit is currently known for this vulnerability. The flaw is remotely exploitable by an authenticated user with specific permissions.

Recommended Action

To mitigate this vulnerability, upgrade Metabase to versions 1.54.24, 1.55.24, 1.56.25, 1.57.19, 1.58.14, 1.59.10, or 1.60.4. Restrict database connection creation and editing permissions to trusted administrators only.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-50148 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.

The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.

A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 10.0.

The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
