Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-71397 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected all versions; fixed in 2.0.5\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected all versions; fixed in 2.0.5\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected from 2.1.0; fixed in 2.1.5\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected from 2.1.0; fixed in 2.1.5\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected from 2.2.0; fixed in 2.2.2\n- surrealdb (crates.io): affected from 2.2.0; fixed in 2.2.2\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-2025-71397/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71397/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-71397","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71397/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-71397","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-33m9-4q46-9q55","GHSA-pxw4-94j3-v9pf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SurrealDB database","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users with high privileges can cause server unresponsiveness by defining custom functions with nested loops that exhaust CPU resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"surrealdb","vendor":"surrealdb"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-835","name":"Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition"}],"description":"SurrealDB before 2.0.5, 2.1.x before 2.1.5, and 2.2.x before 2.2.2 allows authenticated users with OWNER or EDITOR permissions (at the root, namespace, or database level) to define custom database functions via DEFINE FUNCTION using nested FOR loops.
