Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-48042 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- ash (Hex): affected all versions; fixed in 3.5.39\n- ash (Hex): affected all versions; fixed in 3.5.39\n- ash (Hex): affected from 0.1.1; fixed in 3.5.39\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-2025-48042/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-48042/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-48042","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-48042/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-48042","record":{"aliases":["EEF-CVE-2025-48042","GHSA-jj4j-x5ww-cwh9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ash Elixir library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can trigger before-action hooks in the Ash library even when requests are forbidden, bypassing intended access controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"EEF","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in ash-project ash allows Exploiting Incorrectly Configured Access Control Security Levels.\n\nThis issue affects ash: from 0.1.1 before 3.5.39.","ecosystems":["Hex"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Before action hooks may execute in certain scenarios despite a request being forbidden","id":"CVE-2025-48042","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Hex","product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Bypass and runtime policies that can never pass may be incorrectly applied in filter authorization","id":"CVE-2025-48043"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Hex","fixed":["3.5.39"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ash","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-jj4j-x5ww-cwh9"},{"ecosystem":"Hex","fixed":["3.5.39"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ash","purl":"pkg:hex/ash","source":"GHSA-jj4j-x5ww-cwh9"},{"ecosystem":"Hex","fixed":["3.5.39"],"introduced":["0.1.1"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ash","purl":"pkg:hex/ash","source":"EEF-CVE-2025-48042"}],"prev":{"headline":"SSH_FXP_OPENDIR may Lead to Exhaustion of File Handles","id":"CVE-2025-48041"},"products":["ash"],"published":"2025-09-07","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Erlang Ecosystem Foundation","prefix":"EEF"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-09-22","vendors":["ash-project"]},"summary":"Attackers can trigger before-action hooks in the Ash library even when requests are forbidden, bypassing intended access controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-48042/"}
