An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-1688 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Milestone Systems XProtect VMS. 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-2025-1688/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-1688/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-1688","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-1688/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-1688","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xhqv-r4f7-v88g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Video Management Software","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Upgrading Milestone XProtect with specific installers resets the optional system configuration password, bypassing this security feature.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Milestone","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1394","name":"Use of Default Cryptographic Key"}],"description":"Milestone Systems has discovered a\nsecurity vulnerability in Milestone XProtect installer that resets system\nconfiguration password after the upgrading from older versions using specific\ninstallers.\n\nThe system configuration\npassword is an additional, optional protection that is enabled on the\nManagement Server.\n\nTo mitigate the issue, we highly recommend updating system configuration password via GUI with a standard procedure.\n\nAny system upgraded with\n2024 R1 or 2024 R2 release installer is vulnerable to this issue.\n\nSystems upgraded from 2023\nR3 or older with version 2025 R1 and newer are not affected.","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":"System configuration password reset","id":"CVE-2025-1688","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"ThemeMakers PayPal Express Checkout \u003c= 1.1.9 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Shortcode","id":"CVE-2025-1689"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cardealer \u003c= 1.6.4 - Cross-Site Request Forgery to User Update via update_user_profile","id":"CVE-2025-1687"},"products":["XProtect VMS"],"published":"2025-04-15","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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-09-09","vendors":["Milestone Systems"]},"summary":"Upgrading Milestone XProtect with specific installers resets the optional system configuration password, bypassing this security feature.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-1688/"}
