An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-14914 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Websphere Application Server. 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-2025-14914/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14914/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-14914","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14914/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-14914","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3ggc-v7xp-4343"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WebSphere Application Server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A privileged user can upload a malicious zip archive to overwrite files and execute arbitrary code on IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"websphere_application_server","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty 17.0.0.3 through 26.0.0.1 could allow a privileged user to upload a zip archive containing path traversal sequences resulting in an overwrite of files leading to arbitrary code execution.","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":"IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2025-14914","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:websphere_application_server","products":["ibm:websphere_application_server"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty is affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-14915"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in Frontend Post Submission Manager Lite – Frontend Posting WordPress Plugin","id":"CVE-2025-14913"},"products":["WebSphere Application Server Liberty"],"published":"2026-02-02","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-05-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-01-27"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1377","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-01-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-30"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1899","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1172","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-31"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"A privileged user can upload a malicious zip archive to overwrite files and execute arbitrary code on IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-14914/"}
