An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-25420 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.igniterealtime.openfire:xmppserver (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.8.1\n- org.igniterealtime.openfire:xmppserver (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.8.1\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-2024-25420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-25420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-25420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-25420/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-25420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5xvc-rwv8-86p7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Openfire XMPP server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can escalate privileges in Openfire XMPP server by exploiting the admin.authorizedJIDs system property component.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openfire","vendor":"igniterealtime"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-273","name":"Improper Check for Dropped Privileges"}],"description":"An issue in Ignite Realtime Openfire before 4.8.1 allows a remote attacker to escalate privileges via the admin.authorizedJIDs system property component.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-25420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-25421"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["4.8.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.igniterealtime.openfire:xmppserver","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-5xvc-rwv8-86p7"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["4.8.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.igniterealtime.openfire:xmppserver","purl":"pkg:maven/org.igniterealtime.openfire/xmppserver","source":"GHSA-5xvc-rwv8-86p7"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-25419"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2024-03-26","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2023-32315","kev_date_added":"2023-08-24","published":"2023-05-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-25421","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-45967","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire vulnerable to Server Side Request Forgery","id":"CVE-2019-18394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Ignite Realtime Openfire vulnerable to XMPPbomb attack","id":"CVE-2014-2741","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-11"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3451","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6508","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-23"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-11-11","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can escalate privileges in Openfire XMPP server by exploiting the admin.authorizedJIDs system property component.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-25420/"}
