Summary

Hide ▲

Researchers identified Google Looker flaws that could expose secrets, configurations, and cloud data, including possible cross-tenant access in GCP deployments. One issue is CVE-2025-12743, a SQL injection path into the internal database that stores protected data. The other is a chained RCE exploit that could run arbitrary code on a Looker server, and Google has since fixed both issues and directed on-prem customers to update to secure versions in GCP-2025-052.

    Tenable discloses Looker SQL injection and RCE chain

    Initial Disclosure

    On 2026-02-04, Tenable researcher Liv Matan described two security flaws in Google Looker: CVE-2025-12743, a SQL injection path into Looker's internal database that stores user lists, secrets, and configurations, and a separate remote code execution chain that could run arbitrary code on a Looker server. The findings could let an attacker steal secrets and configurations, perform lateral movement inside the target environment, and, in Google Cloud Platform deployments, potentially reach other tenants' data.
