An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-53501 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Wikimedia Foundation Mediawiki - Scribunto Extension. 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-2025-53501/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53501/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-53501","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53501/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-53501","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-87g7-v6qr-fprp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MediaWiki Scribunto extension","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization controls to access restricted functionality in the MediaWiki Scribunto extension.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"wikimedia-foundation","cpe":[{"product":"scribunto","vendor":"xtex"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Improper Access Control vulnerability in Wikimedia Foundation Mediawiki - Scribunto Extension allows : Accessing Functionality Not Properly Constrained by Authorization.This issue affects Mediawiki - Scribunto Extension: from 1.39.X before 1.39.12, from 1.42.X before 1.42.7, from 1.43.X before 1.43.2.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Content Access Bypass in Scribunto","id":"CVE-2025-53501","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"HTML injection in FeaturedFeeds","id":"CVE-2025-53502"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Stored XSS in MassEditRegex","id":"CVE-2025-53500"},"products":["Mediawiki - Scribunto Extension"],"published":"2025-07-03","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"2025-07-10","vendors":["Wikimedia Foundation"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authorization controls to access restricted functionality in the MediaWiki Scribunto extension.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-53501/"}
