Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Inefficient regular expression complexity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-30925)
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to inefficient regular expression complexity in LiveQuery subscription matching when processing a crafted $regex query. A remote attacker can subscribe to a LiveQuery with a crafted regular expression pattern to cause a denial of service.
Only deployments with LiveQuery enabled are vulnerable. Normal REST and GraphQL queries are not affected because their regular expressions are evaluated by the database engine.
