Authorization Flaw in budibase (CVE-2026-45718)
Summary
Vulnerability in budibase (CVE-2026-45718). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via POST /api/tables/. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.38.1 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Budibase is an open-source low-code platform. Prior to 3.38.1, the row action trigger endpoint (POST /api/tables/:sourceId/actions/:actionId/trigger) fails to validate that the user-supplied rowId is within the scope of the view's row filters. A user with access to a filtered view can trigger row actions on any row in the underlying table, including rows explicitly excluded by the view's security filters. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.38.1.

Attack vector: remote (network-reachable) / no user interaction
Attack surface: POST /api/tables/ / rowId / sourceId / tableId
Patched: 3.38.1 — apply immediately
Plan: 1) Audit SBOM/dependencies, 2) Stage→prod upgrade, 3) Add WAF/proxy monitoring on affected endpoints, 4) Hunt IOCs in logs.
Refs: see the GHSA / vendor advisory / patched release linked on this page.
Incorrect authorization (CWE-863) exists in budibase. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via POST /api/tables/.
Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of budibase. Attack surface: POST /api/tables/ / rowId / sourceId / tableId.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 5.4/10). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Update to 3.38.1.
Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order
-
1Identify exposure identify
grep -r 'budibase' . | grep -v node_modulesリポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で
budibaseを grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。 -
2Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
grep 'POST /api/tables/' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'アクセスログで
POST /api/tables/への異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。 -
3Apply patch patch
Upgrade budibase to 3.38.1ステージング環境で 3.38.1 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスと、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。
-
4Post-deployment verification verify
Replay attack against POST /api/tables/ on staging to confirm patch closes the vectorパッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番では Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
