An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-41240 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- appsmith (Bitnami): affected from 1.62.0-0; fixed in 1.81.0-1\n- drupal (Bitnami): affected from 11.1.5-0; fixed in 11.2.2-1\n- wordpress (Bitnami): affected from 6.7.2-7; fixed in 6.8.2-1\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-2025-41240/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-41240/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-41240","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-41240/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-41240","record":{"aliases":["BIT-appsmith-2025-41240","BIT-drupal-2025-41240","BIT-wordpress-2025-41240","GHSA-wgg9-9qgw-529w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Bitnami Helm charts","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can retrieve sensitive Kubernetes secrets via HTTP requests due to predictable file paths in web server document roots.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-552","name":"Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties"}],"description":"Three Bitnami Helm charts mount Kubernetes Secrets under a predictable path (/opt/bitnami/*/secrets) that is located within the web server document root.\nIn affected versions, this can lead to unauthenticated access to sensitive credentials via HTTP/S.
