Summary

DataGerry, before version 3.3.0, has a server-side template injection flaw that lets an attacker who has been granted template-adding permission run arbitrary operating system commands on the server, giving them remote code execution. The attacker can reach it remotely over the network and needs low-privilege login, with no user action required.

Read the original description

DataGerry before 3.3.0 contains a server-side template injection vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers with base.docapi.template.add permission to store arbitrary Jinja2 payloads in the template_data field via POST /rest/docapi/template, which is later rendered in a non-sandboxed Jinja2 environment when a user calls GET /rest/docapi/template/<id>/render/<object_id>. Attackers can exploit the standard cycler.init.globals.os gadget chain to execute arbitrary operating system commands as the DataGerry web process user, confirmed as root in default Docker deployments, achieving remote code execution.

What to do

  • Check whether your setup matches what the bug needs.

    DataGerry versions before 3.3.0 Attacker is authenticated and holds the base.docapi.template.add permission A user must call the template render endpoint for the payload to be rendered
  • Upgrade to a fixed version: 3.3.0.

FAQ

Questions about CVE-2026-57853

Is CVE-2026-57853 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: cve.now feed data

What does this mean?

DocAPI template rendering does not safely handle template input, so a template can inject server-side code. Through this flaw, an authenticated user with the template-add permission can run arbitrary operating system commands as the DataGerry web process user, which was confirmed as root in default Docker deployments.Source: vulncheck.com

Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-57853?

DataGerry: before 3.3.0.Source: cve.now feed data

Am I affected, and how do I check?

DataGerry versions before 3.3.0 are affected. The flaw needs an authenticated account with the base.docapi.template.add permission, and the payload only renders when a user calls GET /rest/docapi/template/<id>/render/<object_id>. Check the installed DataGerry version and the permissions assigned to accounts to see which setups match.Source: vulncheck.com

How do I fix CVE-2026-57853?

Upgrade DataGerry to version 3.3.0 or later, which contains the fix.Source: vulncheck.com
