Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: ArcadeData
Product: arcadedb

Description

ArcadeDB before 26.9.1 fails to enforce security-group types ACL entries for TimeSeries types because the ACL resolver builds permissions from bucket IDs, but TimeSeries types do not own normal record buckets. An authenticated low-privilege user can read or insert TimeSeries samples despite explicit deny rules by exploiting the missing type-name-based access check that causes permission lookups to fail open.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-93593 describes an incorrect authorization vulnerability in ArcadeDB prior to version 26.9.1. The issue arises because the ACL resolver builds permissions based on bucket IDs, but TimeSeries types do not own normal record buckets. Consequently, the access control checks for TimeSeries types fail to enforce security-group ACL entries properly, causing permission lookups to fail open. This flaw enables authenticated users with low privileges to bypass explicit deny rules and read or insert TimeSeries data.

Potential Impact

An authenticated user with low privileges can bypass explicit deny ACL rules and gain unauthorized read and insert access to TimeSeries samples. This could lead to unauthorized data exposure and data integrity issues within the affected ArcadeDB instances.

Mitigation Recommendations

Upgrade ArcadeDB to version 26.9.1 or later, where this authorization issue has been fixed. Patch status is confirmed by the version boundary in the affectedVersions field. No additional vendor advisory is provided, so check the vendor's official release notes for confirmation.
