An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-53118 exists.\n\nAffected product: Securden Unified PAM. 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-2025-53118/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53118/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-53118","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53118/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-53118","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fq2g-f63j-9x36"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Privileged Access Management","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication to access administrator backup functions, compromising stored passwords, secrets, and session tokens.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"An authentication bypass vulnerability exists which allows an unauthenticated attacker to control administrator backup functions, leading to compromise of passwords, secrets, and application session tokens stored by the Unified PAM.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2025/CVE-2025-53118.yaml","stars":null,"title":"Securden Unified PAM - Authentication Bypass"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Securden Unified PAM Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2025-53118","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Securden Unified PAM Unauthenticated Unrestricted File Upload","id":"CVE-2025-53119"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"CometD has acknowledgement extension out of memory","id":"CVE-2025-53114"},"products":["Unified PAM"],"published":"2025-08-25","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-08-25","vendors":["Securden"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can bypass authentication to access administrator backup functions, compromising stored passwords, secrets, and session tokens.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53118/"}
