Last modified
CVE-2026-13068 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 4.3/10 on the CVSS scale. An authenticated user holding cursor termination privileges on one database may incorrectly be permitted to terminate active cursors on a separate database, disrupting ongoing query operations for other users. The behavior stems from an authorization check that does not correctly scope privileges to the appropriate namespace.. EPSS estimates a 0.15% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
