CVE-2026-77932
CriticalCVSS 9.8Summary
DB-GPT through 0.8.2 contains an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability because the /api/v1/chat/react-agent endpoint relies on a mock get_user_from_headers function that grants every caller the admin role. Unauthenticated attackers can send prompts that make the ReAct agent's unsandboxed code_interpreter and shell_interpreter tools run arbitrary Python or bash as root in the webserver container, including reaching the bundled database with default credentials.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can take control of the application container and access data and credentials, posing a critical risk to the entire environment.
Recommendation
Update DB-GPT to a version later than 0.8.2, implement proper authentication and authorization, and run the service in a restricted, unprivileged context.
Other vulnerabilities in DB-GPT
See all- CVE-2026-77933Critical
DB-GPT through 0.8.2 contains a hardcoded credentials vulnerability in its default docker-compose.yml that sets a static MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD and publishes port 3306 on all interfaces. Attackers reaching port 3306 or the shared dbgptnet network can authenticate as root@% to gain full database access including FILE and SUPER privileges.
- CVE-2026-51869Critical
DB-GPT v0.8.0 sandbox API silently falls back to LocalRuntime and executes code on host.
- CVE-2026-51866Critical
In DB-GPT 0.7.5 and 0.8.0, a skill uploaded through the real /api/v1/skills/upload route can later be executed through the real /api/v1/chat/react-agent flow. This allows a previously uploaded, potentially malicious skill to be run in the agent context.
- CVE-2026-51864Critical
DB-GPT v0.7.5 and v0.8.0 contains directory traversal in python_file_upload (packages/dbgpt-app/src/dbgpt_app/openapi/api_v1/python_upload_api.py:42). A remote attacker can use the validated exploitation path to write files outside the intended workspace or storage boundary.
- CVE-2026-51862Critical
DB-GPT 0.8.0 contains directory traversal in skill_upload (packages/dbgpt-app/src/dbgpt_app/openapi/api_v1/agentic_data_api.py:40). A remote attacker can use the validated exploitation path to write files outside the intended workspace or storage boundary.
- CVE-2026-80104Critical
DB-GPT builds the destination path for an uploaded skill from the multipart filename without constraining it to the upload directory. The skill_upload function does not canonicalize the path or check that it remains under the upload root, allowing writes outside it. The endpoint is reachable without authentication, enabling a remote attacker to write arbitrary files and achieve code execution.
- CVE-2026-73034Critical
DB-GPT v0.8.1 contains an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability that allows remote attackers to write arbitrary files to any location on the server by injecting directory traversal sequences into the user_id HTTP header of the Python file-upload endpoint. Attackers can send a crafted multipart upload request with a traversal-poisoned user_id header to escape the intended upload directory and write attacker-controlled content to locations such as Python startup hooks, cron directories, or agent scripts, resulting in remote code execution.
