Unauthenticated credential theft via cross-origin REST request
Published Aug 12, 2026 · Updated Aug 12, 2026
Credential disclosure in Budibase before 3.40.1 allows remote attackers to steal REST datasource secrets through a public query. RestIntegration._req merges getAuthHeaders and defaultHeaders into requests before getUrl resolves the destination, without enforcing the datasource origin. A query must be published with the PUBLIC role and accept an absolute or parameterized path; one unauthenticated request exposes bearer, basic, or static-header credentials.
