It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-25252 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Trendmicro Apex One. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25252/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25252/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25252","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25252/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25252","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f392-jc49-593j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Trend Micro VSAPI","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service or system freeze in Trend Micro VSAPI and ATSE by submitting specially crafted files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trendmicro","cpe":[{"product":"apex_central","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"apex_one","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"cloud_edge","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"control_manager","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"deep_discovery_analyzer","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"deep_discovery_email_inspector","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"deep_discovery_inspector","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"deep_security","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"interscan_messaging_security_virtual_appliance","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"interscan_web_security_virtual_appliance","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"officescan","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"portal_protect","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"safe_lock","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"scanmail","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"scanmail_for_ibm_domino","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"serverprotect","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"serverprotect_for_network_appliance_filers","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"serverprotect_for_storage","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"worry-free_business_security","vendor":"trendmicro"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"Trend Micro's Virus Scan API (VSAPI) and Advanced Threat Scan Engine (ATSE) - are vulnerable to a memory exhaustion vulnerability that may lead to denial-of-service or system freeze if exploited by an attacker using a specially crafted file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in Trend Micro Virus Scan API (VSAPI) Engine","id":"CVE-2021-25252","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"trendmicro:apex_one","products":["trendmicro:apex_one","trendmicro:officescan","trendmicro:worry-free_business_security"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Trend Micro Apex One","id":"CVE-2021-25253"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in Trend Micro Security (Consumer)","id":"CVE-2021-25251"},"products":["Trend Micro Virus Scan API (VSAPI) Engine"],"published":"2021-03-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Trend Micro Apex Central Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2022-26871","kev_date_added":"2022-03-31","published":"2022-03-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2025-69258","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2025-49219","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-17"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2025-49220","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2023-52324","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2023-32529","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-26"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SQL injection in Trend Micro Apex Central","id":"CVE-2023-32530","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-26"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Trend Micro"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service or system freeze in Trend Micro VSAPI and ATSE by submitting specially crafted files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25252/"}
