High CVSS 7.5
CVE-2026-10716
NVD analysis in progress
Directus contains an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the collection creation flow when the instance uses PostgreSQL with PostGIS enabled. An administrator can create a collection with a geometry field whose fields[].type value starts with geometry but contains attacker-controlled SQL syntax after the geometry subtype.This issue affects Directus: before 12.1.0.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable remotely over the network, with a privileged account and with no action from the victim. It also depends on circumstances the attacker does not control.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline.
- Weakness
- Unescaped input is placed into an SQL query, letting the attacker read or alter the database (SQL injection).
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
