What is CVE-2025-24355?
CVE-2025-24355 is a high-severity vulnerability in updatecli, published on 24 Jan 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
Updatecli is a tool used to apply file update strategies. Prior to version 0.93.0, private maven repository credentials may be leaked in application logs in case of unsuccessful retrieval operation. During the execution of an updatecli pipeline which contains a `maven` source configured with basic auth credentials, the credentials are being leaked in the application execution logs in case of failure. Credentials are properly sanitized when the operation is successful but not when for whatever reason there is a failure in the maven repository, e.g. wrong coordinates provided, not existing artifact or version. Version 0.93.0 contains a patch for the issue.
Weakness: CWE-359
