SurrealDB before 2.2.2 Denial of Service via JavaScript Scripting

Published Jul 18, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 2.3 Low EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
SurrealDB before 2.0.5, 2.1.x before 2.1.5, and 2.2.x before 2.2.2 does not enforce a default execution-time limit on embedded JavaScript scripting functions when the scripting capability is explicitly enabled (via --allow-scripting or --allow-all). An authenticated attacker can submit long-running JavaScript functions to exhaust server resources and cause a denial of service. Scripting is disabled by default.
