Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-55521 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2025-55521/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55521/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-55521","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55521/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-55521","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f652-3262-ch4x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Akaunting accounting software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can cause a Denial of Service in Akaunting via crafted POST requests to the localisation settings.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"akaunting","vendor":"akaunting"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"An issue in the component /settings/localisation of Akaunting v3.1.18 allows authenticated attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted POST request.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-55521","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-55522"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-55503"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2025-08-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-22836","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-22390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-21"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Akaunting OS Command Injection in 'Money.php'","id":"CVE-2021-36800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-04"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Akaunting Authentication Bypass in Company Selection","id":"CVE-2021-36801","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-04"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-55522","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-21"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Akaunting DoS via User-Controlled 'locale' Variable","id":"CVE-2021-36802","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-04"}],"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-08-21","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can cause a Denial of Service in Akaunting via crafted POST requests to the localisation settings.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-55521/"}
