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-2025-14115 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container. 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-2025-14115/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14115/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-14115","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14115/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-14115","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vwv8-6f5h-57m5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Sterling Connect:Direct","requires_auth":"none","summary":"IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container contains hard-coded credentials, allowing attackers to bypass authentication or access internal data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container 6.3.0.0 through 6.3.0.6 Interim Fix 016, and 6.4.0.0 through 6.4.0.3 Interim Fix 019 IBM® Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX contains hard-coded credentials, such as a password or cryptographic key, which it uses for its own inbound authentication, outbound communication to external components, or encryption of internal data.","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":"Hardcoded credentials in Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container","id":"CVE-2025-14115","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"xerrors Yuxi-Know embed.py OtherEmbedding.aencode server-side request forgery","id":"CVE-2025-14116"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"1180px Shortcodes \u003c= 1.1.1 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via 'class' Shortcode Attribute","id":"CVE-2025-14114"},"products":["Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container"],"published":"2026-01-20","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"IBM Sterling Connect:Direct for UNIX Container contains hard-coded credentials, allowing attackers to bypass authentication or access internal data.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14115/"}
