Description

CVE-2026-68571 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in Apache Kylin affecting versions 4.0.0 through 5.0.4. The flaw arises from improper control of code generation via a special parameter in the JDBC URL. This vulnerability mainly impacts Kylin services exposed directly to public networks, which is uncommon, while typical in-house deployments are mostly unaffected. The issue is resolved in Apache Kylin version 5.0.5.
