{"cve":"CVE-2025-52465","nvd":{"published":"2026-06-18T16:16:52.027","modified":"2026-10-06T22:10:00.247","status":"Analyzed","description":"GeoServer is an open source server that allows users to share and edit geospatial data. Prior to versions 2.26.4 and 2.27.3, a vulnerability exists that allows an authenticated administrator with access to GeoServer's security system to pass arbitrary file names to the Master Password Dump web page and create files containing the master password in plaintext. The provided file name must be an absolute path to the target file, the target file can not already exist and all parent directories must already exist. Versions 2.26.4 and 2.27.3 contain a fix. GeoServer installations where the web interface is either disabled or completely removed are not affected since the vulnerability exists in one of the web pages.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.2},"cwes":["CWE-73"],"references":["https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/8584","https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/security/advisories/GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25","https://osgeo-org.atlassian.net/browse/GEOS-11852","https://research.checkpoint.com/2025/cve-2025-24054-ntlm-exploit-in-the-wild"],"products":["osgeo:geoserver"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:39:28.638635428+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-52465","score":0.00616,"percentile":0.49232,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-7qmg-grcp-qf25","summary":"GeoServer has an arbitrary file write vulnerability in its Master Password Dump Page","modified":"2026-07-15T22:00:51.269104751Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-app","ranges":[">=2.27.0 <2.27.3"],"fixed":["2.27.3"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-sec-core","ranges":[">=2.27.0 <2.27.3"],"fixed":["2.27.3"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-sec-core","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-sec-core","ranges":["<2.26.4"],"fixed":["2.26.4"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.geoserver.web:gs-web-app","purl":"pkg:maven/org.geoserver.web/gs-web-app","ranges":["<2.26.4"],"fixed":["2.26.4"]}]}],"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).
