Directus contains an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the collection creation flow when the instance uses PostgreSQL with PostGIS enabled. An administrator can create a collection with a geometry field whose fields[].type value starts with geometry but contains attacker-controlled SQL syntax after the geometry subtype.This issue affects Directus: before 12.1.0.
CVE-2026-10716
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under a secondary CVSS source (NVD's own analysis pending). EPSS exploit probability: 0.4% (33rd percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs). GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).

Exploitation none (no KEV listing, exploit record or EPSS ≥ 50%) · Automatable unknown (not published for this CVE) · Technical impact partial (CVSS below 9.0). Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it: high means the affected system is essential to your organisation's mission, or its compromise could cause irreversible harm to people.
