Summary

SQLAdmin before version 0.25.1 has a vulnerability in the ajax_lookup endpoint that bypasses the is_accessible() access control check. An authenticated user can query model data through this endpoint even if a developer restricted access by overriding is_accessible().

Risk Assessment

An authenticated user can gain unauthorized access to model data that should be restricted.

Recommendation

Update SQLAdmin to version 0.25.1 or later, which includes a fix enforcing access control on the ajax_lookup endpoint.

Other vulnerabilities in SQLAdmin

CVE-2026-54529Medium
SQLAdmin is a flexible Admin interface for SQLAlchemy models. Prior to 0.27.1, ModelView.sort_query in sqladmin/models.py accepts the attacker-controlled sortBy list-view query parameter without enforcing the configured column_sortable_list server-side allow-list in self._sort_fields. The value is resolved with getattr and passed to relationship joins and order_by, allowing requests to sort by columns hidden from column_list and by related-model columns through dotted paths. The resulting row order forms an information-exposure oracle for unexposed values, and reversing ascending and descending order confirms their relative ordering. Pairing sortBy with searchable or filterable columns and pagination can narrow the oracle toward specific values, but exact recovery depends on the application's available fields and data. This issue is fixed in version 0.27.1.

Original NVD description (English source)

SQLAdmin is a flexible Admin interface for SQLAlchemy models. Prior to version 0.25.1, the ajax_lookup endpoint in application.py bypasses the is_accessible() access control check that all other endpoints enforce. If a developer restricts model access by overriding is_accessible(), an authenticated user can still query that model's data through the ajax_lookup endpoint — silently bypassing the restriction. This issue has been patched in version 0.25.1.
