Technical details
The vulnerability exists in the /v1/restoredatabase/ API endpoint's restoreDBBackup() handler, which passes an attacker-controlled file path from the POST request body directly into a shell command without proper escaping. An attacker with network access to the loopback API can inject OS commands that execute as root. The issue is remedied in version 1.30.
