A user with only SYSTEM-level privileges (such as\nUSE_PIPE or MAINTAIN) who does NOT have WRITE_DATA or DELETE_DATA\npermissions on target databases can send specially crafted PipeData\nmessages through the Legacy Pipe API, resulting in data loading/deletion\noperations executed as root — effectively bypassing IoTDB's permission\nmodel entirely.\n\n\n\nThis issue affects Apache IoTDB: from 2.0.0 before 2.0.11.\n\n\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 2.0.11, which fixes the issue.","published":"2026-10-21T12:17:22.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-22T16:56:53.000Z","status":"Awaiting Analysis","sourceIdentifier":"security@apache.org","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00255,"percentile":0.1696,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-10-22","score":0.00255,"percentile":0.16171}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
