CVE-2024-58362

CVE-2024-58362 - HIGH Severity Vulnerability

SurrealDB before 1.5.5 (and 2.0.0-beta before 2.0.0-beta.3) accepts an arbitrary object in the signin and signup operations of the RPC API without recursively validating it for non-computed values. When a record access method defines a SIGNIN or SIGNUP query and the RPC API is exposed to untrusted users, an unauthenticated attacker can encode a binary object containing a subquery using the bincode serialization format and supply it in place of credentials. The subquery is then executed within the database owner's SIGNIN/SIGNUP query under a system user session with the editor role, allowing the attacker to select, create, update, and delete non-IAM resources (though not view the query results directly, and not affect IAM resources, which require the owner role).

CVE-2026-54771

Langroid: handle_message() executes user-supplied tool JSON without sender verification

Langroid is a framework for building large-language-model-powered applications. Prior to version 0.65.3, a Langroid application exposing a chat interface to untrusted users may allow direct tool invocation via raw JSON payloads, even when tools are registered with `use=False, handle=True`. Version 0.65.3 fixes the issue.
