{"cve":"CVE-2025-44021","nvd":{"published":"2025-05-08T17:16:01.753","modified":"2026-06-17T09:24:55.933","status":"Deferred","description":"OpenStack Ironic before 29.0.1 can write unintended files to a target node disk during image handling (if a deployment was performed via the API). A malicious project assigned as a node owner can provide a path to any local file (readable by ironic-conductor), which may then be written to the target node disk. This is difficult to exploit in practice, because a node deployed in this manner should never reach the ACTIVE state, but it still represents a danger in environments running with non-default, insecure configurations such as with automated cleaning disabled. The fixed versions are 24.1.3, 26.1.1, and 29.0.1.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N","score":2.8},"cwes":["CWE-22"],"references":["https://bugs.launchpad.net/ironic/+bug/2107847","https://security.openstack.org/ossa/OSSA-2025-001.html","http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/05/08/1"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:01:22.920403922+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-44021","score":0.0019,"percentile":0.08702,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-q3m2-crgq-5p3q","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-q3m2-crgq-5p3q","summary":"OpenStack Ironic fails to restrict paths used for file:// image URLs","modified":"2026-06-09T13:05:48Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ironic","purl":"pkg:pypi/ironic","ranges":["<24.1.3"],"fixed":["24.1.3"]},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ironic","purl":"pkg:pypi/ironic","ranges":[">=25.0.0 <26.1.1"],"fixed":["26.1.1"]},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ironic","purl":"pkg:pypi/ironic","ranges":[">=27.0.0 <29.0.1"],"fixed":["29.0.1"]}]},{"id":"PYSEC-2025-38","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/PYSEC-2025-38","summary":"","modified":"2026-06-10T17:01:52.623930600Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","name":"ironic","purl":"pkg:pypi/ironic","ranges":["<24.1.3",">=25.0.0 <26.1.1",">=27.0.0 <29.0.1"],"fixed":["24.1.3","26.1.1","29.0.1"]}]}],"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).
