CVE-2026-25137Network attack vector

Unauthenticated database access via unpersisted master password

Published Feb 2, 2026 · Updated Feb 2, 2026

Missing authentication in the NixOS Odoo module from 21.11 through 25.05 allows remote attackers to download or delete databases. The module leaves Odoo's development-only database manager enabled while immutable configuration prevents persistence of generated or web-UI master passwords across restarts. Any attacker who can reach /web/database can set a replacement master password and access the database and filestore without prior credentials or administrator action.
