Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-42978 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SAP_SE SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java. 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-2025-42978/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-42978/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-42978","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-42978/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-42978","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2hqw-mcx8-2828"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SAP NetWeaver Java","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass TLS hostname verification to intercept outbound connections and disclose sensitive information from SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"sap","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":3.5,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-940","name":"Improper Verification of Source of a Communication Channel"}],"description":"The widely used component that establishes outbound TLS connections in SAP NetWeaver Application Server Java does not reliably match the hostname that is used for the connection against the wildcard hostname defined in the received certificate of remote TLS server.
