Remote code execution via arbitrary driver-file write
Published Jul 15, 2026 · Updated Jul 15, 2026
Code execution in Metabase allows remote authenticated users with database-management permission to compromise the server process. A configured Snowflake connection can direct the JDBC driver to write attacker-controlled files anywhere on the host, including over a Metabase driver that the process later loads. The attack requires permission to add or edit a database connection; it executes code with the Metabase process's access.
