medium Nessus Plugin ID 261769

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of Metabase installed on the remote host is prior to 0.42.6, 0.43.7, 0.44.5, 1.42.6, 1.43.7, or 1.44.5. It is, therefore, affected by a parameter control vulnerability. A remote attacker can circumvent locked parameters when requesting data for a question in an embedded dashboard by constructing a malicious request to the backend.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Metabase version 0.42.6, 0.43.7, 0.44.5, 1.42.6, 1.43.7, 1.44.5, or later.
