Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2026-3293 affects Snowflake’s JDBC driver versions 4.0.0 and 4.0.1. A local, low-privileged user who can influence the nonProxyHosts JDBC URL value may trigger excessive regular-expression processing, causing limited availability impact. This is not reported as remotely exploitable or actively exploited in the provided sources.
Executive priority
Treat as a targeted availability risk, not an emergency remote-compromise issue. Prioritize remediation for shared servers, developer platforms, and applications where untrusted local users or automation can alter Snowflake JDBC connection settings.
Technical view
The issue is a ReDoS/resource-consumption weakness in SdkProxyRoutePlanner.java within the JDBC URL handler. Manipulating nonProxyHosts can create inefficient regex complexity. Sources map it to CWE-1333 and CWE-400, CVSS 4.0 score 4.8, AV:L/PR:L/VA:L. A public exploit reference and patch commit are listed.
Likely exposure
Exposure is likely limited to environments running snowflake-jdbc 4.0.0 or 4.0.1 where local users or local application inputs can control JDBC URL nonProxyHosts. Systems using other versions are not identified as affected in the provided bundle.
Exploitation context
The source bundle states exploitation requires local access and low privileges, with no user interaction. Public exploit material is referenced, but CISA KEV is false and no cited source confirms active exploitation in the wild.
Researcher notes
Evidence is primarily from VulDB/CVE metadata, GitHub issue tracking, and a patch commit. The bundle names affected versions and the vulnerable component, but does not provide a fixed release number. Avoid assuming broader Snowflake platform exposure beyond the JDBC driver.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory applications using snowflake-jdbc 4.0.0 or 4.0.1.
- Apply the vendor patch commit or a vendor-recommended fixed release when available.
- Restrict who can modify JDBC URLs and proxy-related connection settings.
- Monitor vendor issue and advisory pages for final release guidance.
Validation and detection
- Check dependency manifests and runtime classpaths for snowflake-jdbc versions 4.0.0 or 4.0.1.
- Review application configuration paths that set JDBC URL nonProxyHosts.
- Confirm whether the referenced patch commit is present in deployed driver code.
- Document compensating controls limiting local configuration manipulation.
