Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • EPSS is 0.41% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict local access and enforce least privilege on affected hosts.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs ToolJet ToolJet and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 30 daysRemediation target: Within 180 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

EUVD-2026-68404

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

ToolJet Database versions before v3.16.44 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the join_tables endpoint that grants JOIN_TABLES ability to all authenticated users without role or workspace membership validation. Attackers can read arbitrary ToolJet Database tables from any workspace by supplying victim workspace identifiers in the request path while authenticating with their own workspace credentials.

What, why and how

ToolJet Database versions before v3.16.44 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the join_tables endpoint that grants JOIN_TABLES ability to all authenticated users without role or workspace membership validation. Attackers can read arbitrary ToolJet Database tables from any workspace by supplying victim workspace identifiers in the request path while authenticating with their own workspace credentials.

What

ToolJet Database versions before v3.16.44 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the join_tables endpoint that grants JOIN_TABLES ability to all authenticated users without role or workspace membership validation. Attackers can read arbitrary ToolJet Database tables from any workspace by supplying victim workspace identifiers in the request path while authenticating with their own workspace credentials.

Why

The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.

How

An attacker operating through an adjacent network may attempt exploitation with low privileges. If successful, the issue may gain additional privileges.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path

CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key. The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
