Authenticated Remote Code Execution in DbGate Database Manager

Publication date: 2026-07-23

Last updated on: 2026-07-23

Assigner: GitHub, Inc.

Description
DbGate is cross-platform database manager. Versions 7.1.8 and prior are vulnerable to authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE). Any user with valid DbGate credentials can execute arbitrary OS commands as root by exploiting an unsanitized `functionName` parameter in the `/runners/load-reader` endpoint. The `require = null` mitigation is trivially bypassed via dynamic `import()`. Version 7.1.9 contains a patch.

Executive Summary

DbGate versions 7.1.8 and prior are vulnerable to authenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE). An unsanitized functionName parameter in the /runners/load-reader endpoint allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary OS commands as root by injecting malicious JavaScript code. The require = null mitigation is bypassed using dynamic import() statements.

Detection Guidance

Check if DbGate is running on your system and verify the version. If it is version 7.1.8 or prior, the system is vulnerable. Inspect network traffic for requests to the /runners/load-reader endpoint with unsanitized functionName parameters.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability allows attackers with valid DbGate credentials to execute arbitrary OS commands as root. Potential impacts include privilege escalation, theft of infrastructure secrets, exposure of other users' credentials, network pivoting, and persistence of backdoors.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade DbGate to version 7.1.9 or later, which contains the patch. If upgrading is not immediately possible, restrict access to DbGate to trusted users only and monitor for suspicious activity.
