CVE-2026-42072

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Nornicdb is a distributed low-latency, Graph+Vector, Temporal MVCC with all sub-ms HNSW search, graph traversal, and writes. Prior to version 1.0.42-hotfix, the --address CLI flag (and NORNICDB_ADDRESS / server.host config key) is plumbed through to the HTTP server correctly but never reaches the Bolt server config. The Bolt listener therefore always binds to the wildcard address (all interfaces), regardless of what the user configures. On a LAN, this exposes the graph database — with its default admin:password credentials — to any device sharing the network. This issue has been patched in version 1.0.42-hotfix.

      "value": "Nornicdb es una MVCC Temporal distribuida de baja latencia, Grafo+Vector, con búsqueda HNSW de sub-ms, recorrido de grafos y escrituras. Antes de la versión 1.0.42-hotfix, la bandera CLI --address (y la clave de configuración NORNICDB_ADDRESS / server.host) se canaliza correctamente al servidor HTTP pero nunca llega a la configuración del servidor Bolt. El oyente de Bolt, por lo tanto, siempre se enlaza a la dirección comodín (todas las interfaces), independientemente de lo que el usuario configure. En una LAN, esto expone la base de datos de grafos - con sus credenciales predeterminadas admin:password - a cualquier dispositivo que comparta la red. Este problema ha sido parcheado en la versión 1.0.42-hotfix."
