CVE-2022-39358Network attack vector

Restricted-data disclosure via locked-parameter bypass

Published Oct 26, 2022 · Updated Apr 23, 2025

Authorization bypass in Metabase allows remote authenticated users to read data excluded by locked embedded-dashboard parameters. The backend path for embedded questions accepts crafted request parameters without enforcing values locked into the signed embed; Metabase has not disclosed the responsible function. Access to a signed embedded question is required, and the consequence is limited to records otherwise excluded by its locked filters.
