What is CVE-2025-14823?
CVE-2025-14823 is a medium-severity vulnerability in ConnectWise ScreenConnect, published on 18 Dec 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.
Official description
In deployments using the ScreenConnect™ Certificate Signing Extension, encrypted configuration values including an Azure Key Vault-related key, could be returned to unauthenticated users through a client-facing endpoint under certain conditions. The values remained encrypted and securely stored at rest; however, an encrypted representation could be exposed in client responses. Updating the Certificate Signing Extension to version 1.0.12 or higher ensures configuration handling occurs exclusively on the server side, preventing encrypted values from being transmitted to or rendered by client-side components.
