Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-24860 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 4.0-alpha1; fixed in 4.0.16\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 4.0-alpha1; fixed in 4.0.16\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 4.1-alpha1; fixed in 4.1.8\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 4.1-alpha1; fixed in 4.1.8\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 5.0-alpha1; fixed in 5.0.3\n- org.apache.cassandra:cassandra-all (Maven): affected from 5.0-alpha1; fixed in 5.0.3\n- cassandra (Bitnami): affected from 4.0.0; fixed in 4.0.16, 4.1.8, 5.0.3\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-2025-24860/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-24860/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-24860","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-24860/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-24860","record":{"aliases":["AZL-56433","AZL-56440","BIT-cassandra-2025-24860","CLEANSTART-2026-VT42606","GHSA-3cjf-fwcq-xh22","MINI-chvf-v3fj-rcr6","MINI-gwhm-jv9g-4rfw","MINI-p3rq-24hh-8mcx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Apache Cassandra","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Users with restricted network access can bypass authorization controls to modify their own permissions and access unauthorized data centers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"cassandra","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Apache Cassandra allowing users to access a datacenter or IP/CIDR groups they should not be able to when using CassandraNetworkAuthorizer or CassandraCIDRAuthorizer.\n\nUsers with restricted data center access can update their own permissions via data control language (DCL) statements on affected versions.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Cassandra: from 4.0.0 through 4.0.15 and from 4.1.0 through 4.1.7 for CassandraNetworkAuthorizer, and from 5.0.0 through 5.0.2 for both CassandraNetworkAuthorizer and CassandraCIDRAuthorizer.\n\nOperators using CassandraNetworkAuthorizer or CassandraCIDRAuthorizer on affected versions should review data access rules for potential breaches.
