An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-45829 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- chromadb (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0 up to 1.5.9; no fix listed\n- chromadb (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0 up to 1.5.9; no fix listed\n- chromadb (PyPI): affected from 1.0.0 up to 1.5.9; no fix listed\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45829/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45829/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-45829","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45829/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-45829","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f4j7-r4q5-qw2c","PYSEC-2026-311"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"ChromaDB vector database","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code on the server by sending a malicious model repository with trust_remote_code enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HiddenLayer","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"},{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"A pre-authentication, code injection vulnerability in version 1.0.0 or later of the ChromaDB Python project allows an unauthenticated attacker to run arbitrary code on the server by sending a malicious model repository and trust_remote_code set to true in the /api/v2/tenants/{tenant}/databases/{db}/collections endpoint.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2026-05-20","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":0,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2026-05-20T15:31:29Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/fevar54/FULL-ANALYSIS---CVE-2026-45829-ChromaDB-","stars":0,"title":"Analisis completo y PoC de CVE-2026-45829 en ChromaDB."},{"date":"2026-05-21T11:24:52Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/0xredash/CVE-2026-45829","stars":0,"title":"CVE-2026-45829"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"ChromaDB Python project has a pre-authentication code injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-45829","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"ChromaDB allows any authenticated users to arbitrarily read, write, update, or delete data in any tenant's collection","id":"CVE-2026-45830"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":[],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":["1.5.9"],"package":"chromadb","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-f4j7-r4q5-qw2c"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":[],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":["1.5.9"],"package":"chromadb","purl":"pkg:pypi/chromadb","source":"GHSA-f4j7-r4q5-qw2c"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":[],"introduced":["1.0.0"],"last_affected":["1.5.9"],"package":"chromadb","purl":"pkg:pypi/chromadb","source":"PYSEC-2026-311"}],"prev":{"headline":"decode-uri-component: Denial of service via exponential decoding of malformed percent-encoded input","id":"CVE-2026-45822"},"products":["ChromaDB"],"published":"2026-05-18","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-15","vendors":["Chroma"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated attacker can execute arbitrary code on the server by sending a malicious model repository with trust_remote_code enabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-45829/"}
