CVE-2025-57806

API key disclosure via plaintext SQLite storage

Published Sep 3, 2025 · Updated Sep 3, 2025

Cleartext storage in LearningCircuit Local Deep Research allows local users to read API keys from its SQLite database file. The application writes API keys and other confidential values into its local .db file using ordinary SQLite without encryption or a configurable storage location. Access to the container or host filesystem is required, and exposure compromises the confidentiality of every secret stored in that database.
