Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Link following (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-0913)
CWE-ID: CWE-59 - Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to an insecure link following issue within the os.OpenFile(path, os.O_CREATE|O_EXCL) method when handling dangling symlinks on Windows systems. A local user can create a specially crafted symbolic link and write arbitrary files to the system.
2) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22873)
CWE-ID: CWE-22 - Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal')
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.
The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences in file names. A remote attacker can pass a specially crafted filename to the Root.Open() call, e.g. Root.Open("../") and open the parent directory of the Root.
3) Protection Mechanism Failure (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22874)
CWE-ID: CWE-693 - Protection Mechanism Failure
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in crypto/x509 when using ExtKeyUsageAny. When calling Verify with a VerifyOptions.KeyUsages that contains ExtKeyUsageAny it disables policy validation.
This only affected certificate chains which contain policy graphs, which are rather uncommon.
4) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-4673)
CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to sensitive Proxy-Authorization and Proxy-Authenticate headers are not cleared on cross-origin redirect in net/http. A remote attacker can gain access to credentials passed via these headers.
