An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-52465 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.26.4\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.26.4\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app (Maven): affected from 2.27.0; fixed in 2.27.3\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app (Maven): affected from 2.27.0; fixed in 2.27.3\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.26.4\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 2.26.4\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core (Maven): affected from 2.27.0; fixed in 2.27.3\n- org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core (Maven): affected from 2.27.0; fixed in 2.27.3\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-2025-52465/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52465/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-52465","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52465/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-52465","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GeoServer web application","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can write arbitrary files containing the master password, potentially leading to data exposure or code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"geoserver","vendor":"osgeo"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-73","name":"External Control of File Name or Path"}],"description":"GeoServer is an open source server that allows users to share and edit geospatial data. Prior to versions 2.26.4 and 2.27.3, a vulnerability exists that allows an authenticated administrator with access to GeoServer's security system to pass arbitrary file names to the Master Password Dump web page and create files containing the master password in plaintext. The provided file name must be an absolute path to the target file, the target file can not already exist and all parent directories must already exist. Versions 2.26.4 and 2.27.3 contain a fix. GeoServer installations where the web interface is either disabled or completely removed are not affected since the vulnerability exists in one of the web pages.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"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":"GeoServer has an arbitrary file write vulnerability in its Master Password Dump Page","id":"CVE-2025-52465","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":8,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"pgai secrets exfiltration via `pull_request_target`","id":"CVE-2025-52467"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.26.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.26.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-app","source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.27.3"],"introduced":["2.27.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.27.3"],"introduced":["2.27.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-app","source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.26.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.26.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-sec-core","source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.27.3"],"introduced":["2.27.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["2.27.3"],"introduced":["2.27.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-sec-core","source":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25"}],"prev":{"headline":"Meshtastic Repeated Public and Private Keypairs","id":"CVE-2025-52464"},"products":["org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core"],"published":"2026-06-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Unfiltered SQL Injection Vulnerabilities in Geoserver","id":"CVE-2023-25157","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"GeoServer has improper ENTITY_RESOLUTION_ALLOWLIST URI validation in XML Processing (SSRF)","id":"CVE-2024-34711","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-10"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Unsecured WMS dynamic styling sld=\u003curl\u003e parameter affords blind unauthenticated SSRF in GeoServer","id":"CVE-2023-41339","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-24"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"WPS Server Side Request Forgery in GeoServer","id":"CVE-2023-43795","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-24"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"GeoServer Vulnerable to Unauthenticated SSRF via TestWfsPost","id":"CVE-2024-29198","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"GeoServer has an Infinite Loop Vulnerability in Jiffle process","id":"CVE-2025-30145","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"GeoServer allows SSRF via the option for setting a proxy host","id":"CVE-2021-40822","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-01"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-06-24","vendors":["geoserver"]},"summary":"Authenticated administrators can write arbitrary files containing the master password, potentially leading to data exposure or code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52465/"}
