CVE-2025-52447Network attack vector

Production database access via unchecked initial SQL key

Published Jul 25, 2025 · Updated Jul 25, 2025

Authorization bypass in Salesforce Tableau Server before 2025.1.3 allows remote authenticated users to access production database data. The set-initial-sql tabdoc command trusts a user-controlled key without enforcing object-level authorization before issuing initial SQL. A low-privileged Tableau account and network access are required; exploitation permits arbitrary SQL-based access without interrupting the service.
