## What is CVE-2026-53751?

CVE-2026-53751 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in dataease, published on 7 Jul 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

DataEase is an open source data visualization and analysis tool. Prior to 2.10.24, the H2 database JDBC URL validation logic can be bypassed with special Unicode characters whose case-conversion behavior differs between DataEase validation and H2 parsing, allowing attackers to smuggle dangerous parameters such as init in malicious H2 JDBC connection strings and achieve arbitrary code execution. This issue is fixed in version 2.10.24.

Weakness: CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code)

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-53751 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-53751 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in dataease, published on 7 Jul 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-53751 exists.

Affected product: dataease. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
