What is CVE-2026-31816?

Budibase, a low code platform for creating internal tools, exhibits a significant vulnerability in its server's authorization mechanism. In versions 3.31.4 and earlier, the 'authorized()' middleware designed to protect server-side API endpoints can be bypassed entirely by appending a specific webhook path to the query string of requests. The flawed regex implementation in the 'isWebhookEndpoint()' function allows attackers to circumvent necessary authentication and authorization checks with ease, thereby exposing sensitive server-side API endpoints to unverified users. This vulnerability enables remote attackers to access these endpoints without any authentication, leading to potential data leaks or unauthorized data manipulation.

Affected Version(s)

budibase <= 3.31.4

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
