Summary

ArcadeDB versions 26.4.2 through 26.7.3 contain an authorization bypass vulnerability in the set_server_setting MCP server-level tool. SetServerSettingTool.execute() gates only on the global allowAdmin flag and never checks the caller's role, so in an MCP deployment with allowAdmin=true and a non-root allowedUsers set, any authenticated read-only user can invoke set_server_setting to modify server GlobalConfiguration, enabling configuration tampering or denial of service. The issue is fixed in 26.8.1.

Inferred packages

No advisory lists a package for this vulnerability yet. The CVE names these as products and links their GitHub repository, and the package registry names the same repository, so they are probably the affected packages. Low confidence: the versions are the CVE’s own for the product, and a stack check reports the package as unchecked when there are none.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of ArcadeData/arcadedb published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.
