What is CVE-2025-30373?

CVE-2025-30373 is a medium-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in graylog2-server, published on 7 Apr 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Graylog is a free and open log management platform. Starting with 6.1, HTTP Inputs can be configured to check if a specified header is present and has a specified value to authenticate HTTP-based ingestion. Unfortunately, even though in cases of a missing header or a wrong value the correct HTTP response (401) is returned, the message will be ingested nonetheless. To mitigate the vulnerability, disable http-based inputs and allow only authenticated pull-based inputs. This vulnerability is fixed in 6.1.9.

Weakness: CWE-285
