CVE-2026-118378: Tabularis before 0.28.0 SQL Injection via MCP describe_table table_name
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 34/100)
- Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.15% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone with local access to the system can trigger it. No account or password is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: TabularisDB tabularis 0.28.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to TabularisDB tabularis 0.28.0 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Tabularis before 0.28.0 contains an SQL injection vulnerability in its SQLite driver that allows MCP clients to execute stacked statements by supplying a crafted table_name to the describe_table tool. Attackers, including AI agents steered by untrusted content, can close the quoted PRAGMA argument and append statements to read, modify, or drop SQLite data, bypassing read-only mode and write approval.
