CVE-2026-126812 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 9.3 (critical) and affects blueprintue-self-hosted-edition; fixed in 4.3.7.

## Summary

The blueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition, in its Docker Compose examples, ships with a default setup that lets anyone who can reach the Docker host on port 3306 log in to MariaDB as root with no password. Such an attacker remotely, without logging in, could read, change, or delete user accounts, blueprints, and all databases.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Who should check

Teams running blueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition up to 4.3.6 with the Docker Compose SMTP example or any compose file that publishes MariaDB port 3306.

## Affected

- blueprintue blueprintue-self-hosted-edition: from 1.0.0, fixed in 4.3.7

## Description

blueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition before 4.3.7 contains an insecure default configuration in its Docker Compose examples that sets MYSQL_ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes in database.env and publishes MariaDB on port 3306. Unauthenticated attackers reaching the Docker host on port 3306 can log in as root without a password to read, modify, or delete user accounts, blueprints, and all databases.

## Check your systems with an agent

```text
Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-126812 (blueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition before 4.3.7 Empty MariaDB Root Password via Docker Compose), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

What cve.now has for CVE-2026-126812 (entry last updated 2026-11-11):
Affected:
- blueprintue blueprintue-self-hosted-edition: from 1.0.0, fixed in 4.3.7
Fixed versions: 4.3.7.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- Deployed from the project's Docker Compose SMTP example, which sets an empty MariaDB root password. (source: https://github.com/blueprintue/blueprintue-self-hosted-edition/security/advisories/GHSA-9f6r-vjc7-jq67)
- The MariaDB service is published on host port 3306, so it is reachable from the network. (source: https://github.com/blueprintue/blueprintue-self-hosted-edition/security/advisories/GHSA-9f6r-vjc7-jq67)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: network access, no login, no user action.
Workaround: Remove the public port mapping when external database access is unnecessary. (source: https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/blueprintue-self-hosted-edition-before-4.3.7-empty-mariadb-root-password-via-docker-compose)
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-126812 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-126812 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

## FAQ

### Is CVE-2026-126812 being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.

Source: https://cve.now/CVE-2026-126812

### What does this mean?

The Docker Compose setup lets MariaDB accept root logins with an empty password. If the database port is reachable from the network, an attacker can log in as root without credentials and read, change, or delete data in all databases, or create and change database accounts.

### Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-126812?

blueprintue-self-hosted-edition: from 1.0.0 before 4.3.7.

Source: https://cve.now/CVE-2026-126812

### Am I affected, and how do I check?

Versions from 1.0.0 before 4.3.7 are affected when deployed from the Docker Compose SMTP example. To check a deployment, look in its Compose file for an empty MariaDB root password and a host port mapping to 3306.

### How do I fix CVE-2026-126812?

Upgrade to blueprintUE Self-Hosted Edition 4.3.7 or later. Until then, remove the public port mapping for MariaDB if external database access is not needed.
