CVE-2026-61788: @bytebase/dbhub's read-only mode does not prevent database writes

September 24, 2026

Setting readonly = true on the execute_sql tool does not make the connection read-only. The connectors are written to set PostgreSQL default_transaction_read_only=on (and open SQLite in readOnly mode), but that code is gated on a config value that is never populated, so it never runs. The only thing left enforcing read-only is a classifier that inspects the first keyword of each statement. Any SELECT that writes or has side effects through a function call passes it. With an ordinary role this allows sequence tampering; with a privileged role it allows writing arbitrary files on the server (lo_export), reading arbitrary host files (pg_read_file), and remote code execution (dblink + COPY ... TO PROGRAM). The HTTP transport is unauthenticated and binds to 0.0.0.0 by default, so this is reachable by any network caller of /mcp.
