An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2025-54858 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2025-54858 is a high-severity denial of service vulnerability in F5 Big-Ip Advanced Web Application Firewall, published on 15 Oct 2025. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-54858 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Advanced Web Application Firewall. 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-2025-54858/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54858/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-54858","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54858/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-54858","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g256-87j3-gw89"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"BIG-IP WAF/ASM","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by sending specific requests to a BIG-IP virtual server configured with a malformed JSON schema in a WAF or ASM policy.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"f5","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_advanced_web_application_firewall","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_security_manager","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-674","name":"Uncontrolled Recursion"}],"description":"When a BIG-IP Advanced WAF or BIG-IP ASM Security Policy is configured with a JSON content profile that has a malformed JSON schema, and the security policy is applied to a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause the bd process to terminate.\n\n Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"BIG-IP Advanced WAF and ASM vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-54858","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"f5:big-ip_advanced_web_application_firewall","products":["f5:big-ip_advanced_web_application_firewall","f5:big-ip_application_security_manager"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in desknet's NEO","id":"CVE-2025-54859"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in SkyBridge BASIC MB-A130","id":"CVE-2025-54857"},"products":["BIG-IP"],"published":"2025-10-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in BIG-IP Advanced WAF and BIG-IP ASM","id":"CVE-2021-23031","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in BIG-IP Advanced WAF and BIG-IP ASM","id":"CVE-2021-23029","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in BIG-IP ASM/Advanced WAF","id":"CVE-2021-23014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in BIG-IP Advanced WAF and BIG-IP ASM","id":"CVE-2021-22993","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"BIG-IP Advanced WAF and ASM vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-40060","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-13"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"BIG-IP HTTP/2 Layer 7 Dos Protection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-41227","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-13"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["F5"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by sending specific requests to a BIG-IP virtual server configured with a malformed JSON schema in a WAF or ASM policy.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-54858/"}
