high Nessus Plugin ID 331862

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of Metabase installed on the remote host is 0.58.x prior to 0.58.15, 0.59.x prior to 0.59.12, 0.60.x prior to 0.60.6.3, 0.61.x prior to 0.61.1.4, 1.58.x prior to 1.58.15, 1.59.x prior to 1.59.12, 1.60.x prior to 1.60.6.3, or 1.61.x prior to 1.61.1.4. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability:

- Metabase instances with an H2 database connection, including the default sample database, deserialize arbitrary Java objects returned in H2 native query result columns of type OTHER without validation, allowing an authenticated user who can run native H2 queries to execute code on the Metabase server. (CVE-2026-59827)

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 0.58.15, 0.59.12, 0.60.6.3, 0.61.1.4, 1.58.15, 1.59.12, 1.60.6.3, 1.61.1.4, or later.
