High CVSS 8.4

An improper authorization vulnerability in Dremio Software allows authenticated users to delete arbitrary files that the system has access to, including system files and files stored in remote locations such as S3, Azure Blob Storage, and local filesystems. This vulnerability exists due to insufficient access controls on an API endpoint, enabling any authenticated user to specify and delete files outside their intended scope. Exploiting this flaw could lead to data loss, denial of service (DoS), and potential escalation of impact depending on the deleted files. Affected versions: * Any version of Dremio below 24.0.0 * Dremio 24.3.0 - 24.3.16 * Dremio 25.0.0 - 25.0.14 * Dremio 25.1.0 - 25.1.7 * Dremio 25.2.0 - 25.2.4 Fixed in version: * Dremio 24.3.17 and above * Dremio 25.0.15 and above * Dremio 25.1.8 and above * Dremio 25.2.5 and above * Dremio 26.0.0 and above

Matched remediation archetype

Authorization bypass, IDOR, and cross-tenant access

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map object and action authorization checks across API, UI, batch, import/export, and background-job paths.
  • Identify tenant, ownership, role, and policy boundaries for affected resources and administrative operations.
  • Use synthetic fixtures to compare intended access matrices without accessing another user's real data.

Remediate safely

  • Enforce server-side authorization at each resource access and state transition using the authenticated principal and trusted tenant context.
  • Scope data queries by tenant and ownership; treat client-supplied identifiers, roles, and policy claims as untrusted.
  • Add deny-by-default policy tests for horizontal and vertical access across every affected transport.
