CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2024-46997 is a critical-severity Injection (CWE-74) vulnerability in Dataease Dataease. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 29% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
DataEase, an open source data visualization analysis tool, contains a remote command execution vulnerability in versions prior to 2.10.1. The flaw, tracked as CVE-2024-46997 and assigned CWE-74, allows an attacker to supply a maliciously crafted H2 database connection string that results in arbitrary command execution on the server. The issue carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8, reflecting network-accessible exploitation without authentication or user interaction.
An unauthenticated attacker with network access can add the malicious data source through the application's normal connection configuration workflow, achieving full control over the underlying host including the ability to read, modify, or delete data and execute system commands. Because the vector requires no privileges, the impact extends to any internet-exposed or internally reachable DataEase instance that accepts user-supplied data sources.
The official advisory published in the DataEase GitHub repository states that the vulnerability has been resolved in version 2.10.1; administrators are advised to upgrade immediately and to restrict or review any existing H2 data source definitions until patches are applied.
EPSS for the CVE rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.2129, indicating that exploitation interest emerged after public disclosure and that the issue warrants renewed defensive attention.

Security testing in development catches injection vulnerabilities before release.
Logging supports detection of injection attempts but does not prevent the weakness.
Monitoring activities can identify active injection attacks after they occur.
Secure development life cycle mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevent injection flaws.
Application security requirements explicitly call for controls against injection attacks in software design.
Secure architecture principles reduce injection surfaces but do not prescribe specific neutralization techniques.
