Description

This security bulletin contains information about 13 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49535)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.


2) Use of hard-coded credentials (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49551)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain full access to the vulnerable application.

The vulnerability exists due to presence of hard-coded credentials in application code. A remote unauthenticated attacker can access the application using the hard-coded credentials.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Incorrect authorization (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49536)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect authorization. A remote authenticated user can bypass implemented security restrictions and gain unauthorized access to the application. 


4) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49537)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation. A remote privileged user can pass specially crafted data to the application and execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.


5) XML injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49538)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to read arbitrary files.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation when processing XML data. A remote unauthenticated attacker can pass specially crafted XML data to the application and read arbitrary files on the system.


6) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49539)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote user can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to view contents of arbitrary file on the server or perform network scanning of internal and external infrastructure.


7) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49540)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


8) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49541)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


9) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49542)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


10) Stored cross-site scripting (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49543)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data. A remote user can inject and execute arbitrary HTML and script code in user's browser in context of vulnerable website.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information, change appearance of the web page, perform phishing and drive-by-download attacks.


11) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49544)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to gain access to sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input. A remote privileged user can pass a specially crafted XML code to the affected application and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or initiate requests to external systems.


12) Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49545)

The disclosed vulnerability allows a remote user to perform SSRF attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote privileged user can send a specially crafted HTTP request and trick the application to initiate requests to arbitrary systems.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a remote attacker gain access to sensitive data, located in the local network or send malicious requests to other servers from the vulnerable system.


13) Improper access control (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-49546)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access restrictions. A remote user can bypass implemented security restrictions and gain unauthorized access to the application, resulting in a denial of service condition.
