Technical details
The vulnerability exists in Arc's SQL validator (internal/api/query.go:ValidateSQLRequest), which utilized an incomplete regex denylist for DuckDB functions. While it blocked 'read_parquet', it failed to account for other I/O functions like 'read_csv_auto', 'read_json', and 'read_blob'. Furthermore, the RBAC engine only inspected 'FROM' and 'JOIN' clauses, allowing scalar table functions in the 'SELECT' list to bypass table-level access controls. An authenticated attacker can exploit this to read local system files (e.g., /etc/passwd, auth.db) or perform SSRF via the 'httpfs' extension. The issue is fixed in version 2026.06.1 by implementing a structural sandbox that restricts DuckDB to specific allowed directories and disables external access.
