{"cve":"CVE-2025-14728","nvd":{"published":"2025-12-29T19:15:55.277","modified":"2026-10-07T12:10:00.170","status":"Analyzed","description":"Rapid7 Velociraptor versions before 0.75.6 contain a directory traversal issue on Linux servers that allows a rogue client to upload a file which is written outside the datastore directory. Velociraptor is normally only allowed to write in the datastore directory. The issue occurs due to insufficient sanitization of directory names which end with a \".\", only encoding the final \".\" AS \"%2E\".\n\n\nAlthough files can be written to incorrect locations, the containing directory must end with \"%2E\". This limits the impact of this vulnerability, and prevents it from overwriting critical files.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":6.8},"cwes":["CWE-22"],"references":["https://docs.velociraptor.app/announcements/advisories/cve-2025-14728/"],"products":["rapid7:velociraptor"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:18:08.089039631+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-14728","score":0.0056,"percentile":0.46336,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
