{"schema":"threatline.record/2","record":{"id":"CVE-2026-59229","aliases":[],"summary":"Apache IoTDB: Legacy Pipe Privilege Escalation","details":"The Legacy Pipe receiver protocol (handshake / sendPipeData) uses a\nhardcoded SUPER_USER (root) identity when executing data loading and\ndeletion operations. A user with only SYSTEM-level privileges (such as\nUSE_PIPE or MAINTAIN) who does NOT have WRITE_DATA or DELETE_DATA\npermissions on target databases can send specially crafted PipeData\nmessages through the Legacy Pipe API, resulting in data loading/deletion\noperations executed as root — effectively bypassing IoTDB's permission\nmodel entirely.\n\n\n\nThis issue affects Apache IoTDB: from 2.0.0 before 2.0.11.\n\n\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.11, which fixes the issue.","categories":["Unclassified"],"product":"Apache IoTDB","vendor":"Apache Software Foundation","ecosystem":null,"affected_ranges":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-59229","source_modified_at":"2026-10-21T18:10:33.431Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","product":"Apache IoTDB","vendor":"Apache Software Foundation","versions":[{"status":"affected","version":"2.0.0","lessThan":"2.0.11","versionType":"semver"}],"defaultStatus":"unaffected"}],"fixed_versions":[{"source":"CVE List","source_url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-59229","source_modified_at":"2026-10-21T18:10:33.431Z","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","package":{"name":"Apache IoTDB","ecosystem":null},"version":"2.0.11","basis":"first unaffected version stated in the CVE record"}],"cvss":null,"severity":null,"kev":{"listed":false},"epss":{"probability":0.00255,"percentile":0.16192,"score_date":"2026-10-23"},"published_at":"2026-10-21T11:11:46.924Z","modified_at":"2026-10-21T18:10:33.431Z","provenance":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-59229","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-21T18:10:33.431Z"},{"source":"EPSS","url":"https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2026-59229","fetched_at":"2026-10-23T18:42:43.628194Z","source_modified_at":"2026-10-23"}],"sources":["CVE List","EPSS"],"references":[{"source":"CVE List","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/yzx26fb9v1vwk1zqs700cf1mrctjrb3d","tags":["vendor-advisory"]}],"locations":[],"motoko_assessment":{"status":"requires_architecture_review","automatic_remediation":false},"cve_state":"PUBLISHED","classification":{"method":"product-first software-layer rules","rules_version":"2.1","matched_on":null,"confidence":"unknown","reviewed":false},"change_timestamp":"2026-10-21T18:10:33.431Z","content_hash":"837810c265deeb4c08b025717bf670b0bc79a672dae97a83a4f0839b6380bb46"}}
