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-2025-55202 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 17.7\n- org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 17.7\n- org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration (Maven): affected from 18.0; fixed in 18.1\n- org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration (Maven): affected from 18.0; fixed in 18.1\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-2025-55202/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55202/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-55202","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55202/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-55202","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hq8m-v68g-8cf8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Opencast media platform","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can read files from adjacent directories due to insufficient path validation in the UI config module of Opencast.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"opencast","vendor":"apereo"}],"cvss":{"score":2.7,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-23","name":"Relative Path Traversal"}],"description":"Opencast is a free, open-source platform to support the management of educational audio and video content. In version 18.0 and versions before 17.7, the protections against path traversal attacks in the UI config module are insufficient, still partially allowing for attacks in very specific cases. The path is checked without checking for the file separator. This could allow attackers access to files within another folder which starts with the same path. This issue has been fixed in versions 17.7 and 18.1. To mitigate this issue, check for folders that start with the same path as the ui-config folder.","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":"Opencast has a partial path traversal vulnerability in UI config","id":"CVE-2025-55202","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2025"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Plane Stored XSS in Add Work Item Functionality","id":"CVE-2025-55203"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["17.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hq8m-v68g-8cf8"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["17.7"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration","purl":"pkg:maven/org.opencastproject/opencast-user-interface-configuration","source":"GHSA-hq8m-v68g-8cf8"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["18.1"],"introduced":["18.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hq8m-v68g-8cf8"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["18.1"],"introduced":["18.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.opencastproject:opencast-user-interface-configuration","purl":"pkg:maven/org.opencastproject/opencast-user-interface-configuration","source":"GHSA-hq8m-v68g-8cf8"}],"prev":{"headline":"Copier safe template has arbitrary filesystem read/write access","id":"CVE-2025-55201"},"products":["opencast"],"published":"2025-08-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Files Accessible to External Parties in Opencast","id":"CVE-2021-43821","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-14"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Authentication Bypass For Endpoints With Anonymous Access in OpenCast","id":"CVE-2020-5206","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Opencast vulnerable to billion laughs attack (XML bomb)","id":"CVE-2021-32623","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-15"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Opencast stores passwords using outdated MD5 hash algorithm","id":"CVE-2020-5229","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Opencast uses unsafe identifiers","id":"CVE-2020-5230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Opencast allows unauthorized public access via OAI-PMH","id":"CVE-2020-5228","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Opencast publishes global system account credentials","id":"CVE-2018-16153","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-12"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-08-29","vendors":["opencast"]},"summary":"Attackers can read files from adjacent directories due to insufficient path validation in the UI config module of Opencast.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55202/"}
