SCA: security update for com.arcadedb:arcadedb-engine (GHSA-8w86-m9h8-hvqg)

high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 444795

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- ArcadeDB is a Multi-Model DBMS. Prior to 26.6.1, the IMPORT DATABASE statement in
engine/src/main/java/com/arcadedb/query/sql/parser/ImportDatabaseStatement.java did not require
administrative privileges and passed its source to
integration/src/main/java/com/arcadedb/integration/importer/SourceDiscovery.java without validation. An
authenticated user with SQL command access through /api/v1/command or /api/v1/query can supply HTTP or
HTTPS destinations to make server-side requests to internal services, or file:// paths to read files
accessible to the server process and ingest the results as queryable records. The XML importer also
permits DTD processing and external entities, enabling entity expansion. The root-only /api/v1/server
administration endpoint is not affected. The fix requires updateSecurity permission, blocks local-network
import destinations by default through arcadedb.server.security.importBlockLocalNetworks, supports the
arcadedb.server.security.importAllowedLocalPaths file allow-list, and disables XML DTD processing and
external entities. This issue is fixed in version 26.6.1. (CVE-2026-54077)

Solution

Update the com.arcadedb:arcadedb-engine library and its related packages to version 26.6.1 or later.
