What is CVE-2025-6024?

CVE-2025-6024 is a medium-severity cross-site scripting vulnerability in Wso2 Api Manager, published on 16 Apr 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

The authentication endpoint fails to encode user-supplied input before rendering it in the web page, allowing for script injection. An attacker can leverage this by injecting malicious scripts into the authentication endpoint. This can result in the user's browser being redirected to a malicious website, manipulation of the web page's user interface, or the retrieval of information from the browser. However, session hijacking is not possible due to the httpOnly flag protecting session-related cookies.

Weakness: CWE-79
